Super Eagles attacker, Ejike Uzoenyi, has declared war on the Warriors of Zimbabwe in the Third Place play-off scheduled for Saturday at the ongoing African Nations Championship.

While expressing his disappointment about the Semi-Final loss of the team to the Black Stars of Ghana on Wednesday, Uzoenyi said the team is determined to make up for the loss by winning bronze for soccer loving Nigerians.

“It’s the only thing we have to leave here with and we are determined to compensate Nigerians with a third-place finish.

Uzoenyi who narrated his ordeal when he was elbowed by Ghanaian defebder Kwabina Adusei, said he nearly passed away, if not for God that restored his life.

“That player wanted to kill me with that vicious elbow and I was blank and did not know where I was until I started hearing noises, but I was determined to continue that was why I was rushing back to the pitch.

“But I think it was God that saved my life because some lesser cases have resulted in fatalities.” He said.
