“Play with belief and togetherness — you have what it takes to make the nation proud,” he told the team.
The Flamingos have been in blistering form ahead of the World Cup, winning all 10 of their tune-up matches, scoring 44 goals and conceding none.
Also visiting the team was Ameenu Mohammed, NFF Referee Assessor and Special Assistant to the General Secretary, who educated the players on the laws of the game and the importance of discipline on the pitch.
