The Nigeria Football Federation are not happy with the
duo of Victor Moses and Isaac Success for excusing themselves
from Sunday's World Cup qualifier against Zambia in Ndola on the
grounds of being injured.
Feelers from
the Glass House revealed that the NFF doubt the authenticity of the duo's claim
of being injured and have resolved to investigate their claims and if found to
be false, will discipline them and this may even lead to their being banned
from future invitations.
Both players
put up excellent performances in their respective games in the Premier League
in England over the last weekend and won the man of the match prizes. Success,
a second half substitute, scored the equaliser for Watford against Bournemouth while
Moses who started his first league game for Chelsea in three years was substituted late in the game
against Hull.
An NFF
source said “We know the two players had
good games and there was no sign of injury on the duo during or after the game,
It came as a surprise to hear later that Moses was injured and that he would
not be available for the game and Success finished his team's game before
claiming injury. Honestly, they won't go unpunished if our investigation
turns out as we are suspecting. In fact, we are considering writing a protest
to FIFA if we find out that they connived with their respective clubs to feign
injuries and stay away from the matches.”
