The story of
team Under 23 Dream team, and the overall team Nigeria captain to the Rio
Olympic Games 2016, John Mikel Obi could be likened to a story once told of celebrated
Olympian, Maurice Greene
As the story
goes, Maurice Greene fell out during the qualifying series in the preparation
for the 1990 Olympics world game. He lost and went home disappointed and when
his father saw him in his depressed state, he urged him to go back to the same
stadium he had lost the race
He was there
several days and nights training and preparing for the next event and in 1997,
Maurice Greene was not only able to win for United States of America, he became
the fastes man in the world-he was wounded lion
Today, we
can reveal that such is state of mind that the Nigeria U 23 CAPTAIN and Chelsea
holding midfielder, John Obi is carrying to the Olympics,
Obi who has openly
confessed his overwhelming joy for being named captain of the team Nigeria is desperate
to prove a couple of points
A very close
source to the super brand African footballer, has told CERUTTI WEEKEND SPORT
MEGAMIX the thinking of Mikel Obi and the football games at Rio
“ His
ambition is to wear the gold, and you can see that from his work ethic with the
team, Mikel is eager for success for
many reasons , few I will tell you,
namely to clean the tears millions of Nigerians
shed for leading the senior national team to miss the next Nations Cup; Mikel is also desperate to
win more gold, for apart from the Nations Cup he won as member of late Steve
Keshi touted team, he has not won a major tourney, his days a flying Eagles
coach under Samson Siasia fetched him silver
“Another
reason he desires an Olympic gold is due to his future at Chelsea, his thinking
is that a gold in Rio will put him at vantage position to seek for first team
slot with new coach Conte Chelsea and finally, he will be setting a record a
captain of team Nigeria that led the soccer team to a gold medal, a big glory
for “our usually competent source hinted us
