Lazio midfielder Ogenyi Onazi has revealed toMTNFootball.com that Prophet T.B. Joshua foretold his goal against Venezuela.
The
youngster scored the Eagles third goal in the 3-1 victory over
Venezuela on Thursday after receiving a pass from Newcastle United
striker Shola Ameobi.
“My
goal was made in heaven because Prophet T.B.Joshua told me I will
score. He even gave me some tips on how to have a good game,” he told MTNFootball.com.
“I therefore dedicate the goal to God almighty and also to Prophet
T.B. Joshua, who inspired me to score the goal.
“This goal will boost my confidence in other games as I believe more goals are coming by his grace.”
Onazi again restated his belief to make the squad to next year’s Nations Cup in South Africa.
“I’m
happy at the manner the coach has been giving me opportunities and I
can assure Nigerians that I will be part of the team that will bring the
Nations Cup to the country next year,” he declared.
Portland
Timbers forward Bright Dike, who debuted for Nigeria on Thursday
against Venezuela, has equally expressed his happiness to represent
Nigeria.
“I
was very excited to wear the green Jersey of Nigeria, I feel honoured
and I had great pride in representing my country,” he told MTNFootball.com.
“The
team played for each other and we got a deserved the victory. I did my
best and really wanted to make it a scoring debut and I came so close.
That just gives me more motivation for the next time we play.”
