“Before now the team was lying fallow in 77th position in the FIFA rankings but since his arrival and the matches he has won and drawn, the team has moved up to an appreciable level where we can be proud of.
“This really shows the coaching magic that a coach like Rohr can have in a team and I am happy that the Super Eagles are now flying pretty high,” he said.
