The issue of Nigeria converting chances from free kicks has always dominated discussions as one of the weakness of the senior national team of Nigeria during international games and tournaments.
Kelechi Iheanacho who was the last player to score for Nigeria directly from a free kick when he scored against Argentina in a 4-2 friendly win has taken it as a challenge as Nigeria gears up for the World Cup 2018 in Russia.
Iheanacho was involved in extra drills yesterday as he aimed to force his way back into the starting line up and also solve the issue of scoring directly from free kicks for the senior national team of Nigeria.
Owngoalnigeria.com source at the club revealed that the Leicester City forward did extra drills on his fitness and particularly took time out to work on taking free kicks using different means in a personal training session.
Bar Kelechi Iheanacho, the quest and hunger to break into the starting line up has seen most of the players practice extra session to force their way into the line up when the World Cup begins on the 14th of June.
