Super Eagles head coach, Eric Chelle, has hinted at switching his tactical setup ahead of their 2025 Africa Cup of Nations semi-final against Morocco on Wednesday.
Speaking to the media on Tuesday, Chelle admitted that some of his players are getting fatigued.
The Malian tactician has mostly deployed a 4-4-2 diamond formation with Victor Osimhen and Akor Adams up top.
So far, the Eagles have scored 14 times in five fixtures and created the most chances.
Their high-tempo, energetic and aggressive style has overwhelmed opponents including Tanzania, Tunisia, Uganda, Mozambique and Algeria.
But Chelle has now said: “I find that my group is tired; it might be time for me to change my approach.
“We’ll start that way, I think. We’ll hold on in the first half and try to play our game in the second half.”
