The Super Eagles of Nigeria are
going to be lined up in a 3-5-2 formation when they take on Iceland later today
in their second group game at the Russia 2018 World Cup in Volgograd.
Coach Gernot Rohr has ditched the
4-2-3-1 formation used in the 0-2 loss to Croatia and has also replaced some
players who started in the first game but fail to convince.
Rohr has also revert Victor Moses to
the right wing-back role he plays at his club Chelsea while Kenneth Omeruo
replaces Shehu Abdullahi as the team moves to a formation of three centre
backs.
Kelechi Iheanacho takes the spot of
Odion Ighalo and he would be supported in a two man attack by Ahmed Musa who is
in the squad at the expense of Arsenal forward Alex Iwobi who drops to the
bench.
