Former Super Eagles star Baruwa labels NFF’s targets for Rohr as ‘good pressure’

Abiodun Baruwa has labelled the Nigeria Football Federation’s (NFF) expectations from Super Eagles coach Gernot Rohr as good pressure.

The 66-year-old recently signed a new two-year contract extension with the NFF after his satisfactory performances since he took charge of the West Africans.

The Franco-German qualified the Super Eagles for the 2018 World Cup in Russia with a game to spare, before leading the side to the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt, having missed the previous two editions in 2015 and 2017.
