Super Eagles boss Finidi George has hailed Hatayaspor midfielder Fisayo Dele-Bashiru for a wonderful performance against South Africa.
The youngster saved the day for Nigeria as he netted the equalizer early in the second half.
The coach also released an update about the situation of his injury ahead of the next game.
“It was a great performance from him, that was why he played. People talk about changes, but not about fielding a player. If he didn’t do well, I know that question will come back to me,’ why did he play?
“Now that he has played, everybody is saying good performance. Like I said, leave this job to the coaches to do.”
On his injury, he had a knock, the medical staff will observe him and see how he feels. Those knocks, you will not know until you wake up in the morning and see how the body reacts,” he added.
