LEFT winger Babatunde Michael is set to replace injured Milan ace Nnamdi Oduamadi for Saturday’s crucial Olympic qualifier against Tanzania.<\/p>\n

Michael, who features for Ukrainian side Kryvbas FC, has been in fine form in training, is up against Heartland star Osas Okoro and Josiah Madabuchi from Enyimba to fill in for Oduamadi in the starting XI of Dream Team V.<\/p>\n

Oduamadi left the team’s Benin training camp Tuesday night for Lagos to get further medical attention following the left lateral ankle injury he suffered in training the previous day.<\/p>\n

He is expected to be sidelined for several weeks.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) have charged the country’s Olympic side to go all out for a convincing victory in this weekend’s 2012 Olympic Games second round, second leg qualifier against the Vijana Stars of Tanzania.<\/p>\n

Tanzania won the first leg 1-0.<\/p>\n

NFF deputy general secretary (technical), Emmanuel Ikpeme, said: “I was with the team in Tanzania and I can confirm our team were better but they underrated the Vijana Stars. We have what it takes to beat this Tanzanians but we must not be complacent.<\/p>\n

“I’m happy that the coach Austin Eguavoen and the players know what is a stake and I want to believe that if Tanzania were able to beat us 1-0, I don’t see what stops us from cancelling that goal and go ahead and win Saturday’s match well.”<\/p>\n

He added: “I strongly believe in this team and if they put up their “A” game, I see no reason why they would not overrun the Vijana Stars.”<\/p>\n

Saturday’s clash kicks off 4pm local time and the Tanzanians were expected in Benin City yesterday.<\/p>\n
