The Reason Why Nsofor And Joel Obi Was Left Out Of The Final 23

With 7 days left, The Boss presented a list that shocked fans and pundits alike by keeping only 5 midfielders.
A source told KickOffNigeria the reason why the duo, Obinna Nsofor and Joel Obi where left out.
He said they where excluded because of the nagging injury they had gotten in training.
Nsorfor had been injured during the first first training session.
The source said: “His knee swelled up after the first training session, and that’s why he missed out on the Scotland friendly.
“The doctors worked on it and monitored it over the next few days, but in the end, a decision was taken not to risk it, because he could aggravate it at the World Cup and that could be bad for his career.”
Joel Obi's case was similar too, but the Parma man was able to play the Scotland game even though he was unfit.
