Elderson Echiejile is facing a real test to hang on to his role as the first choice left full back of the Super Eagles according to coach of the Nigerian team Gernot Rohr.
Ola Aina who played the role for Nigeria against Algeria in their last World Cup 2018 Qualifiers tie which ended 1-1 will no doubt give Echiejile a fight according to Rohr.
“It’s good for the competition for Elderson Echiejile when you want to progress you need two good players in each position,” Rohr told Completesportnigeria.com, referring to Aina.
“I’m happy we already have this friendly against Argentina. It is wonderful to play against some of the best players in the world.
“We are unbeaten in the qualifiers but now we need to work harder ahead of Tuesday. But it’s going to be tough because we have just two days to prepare for it.”
