Coach Chelle in Rabat with 11 wins, 1 loss in 17 games

By Editor

Franco-Malian manager, Éric Sékou Chelle, is surely building a vibrant personal record with the Super Eagles of Nigeria. He will walk inside the Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium on Wednesday with springs in his steps, having never lost a competitive match in regulation time since taking over Nigeria’s ‘A’ squad 12 months ago.

Chelle’s tally is a tidy 11 wins in 17 matches for the Super Eagles, with five draws, and a single loss in regulation time to the Pharaohs of Egypt, which occurred when Nigeria put out an understrength squad in a friendly in Cairo on 16 December.
