By Rasaq Oboirien
NIGERIA'S Super Eagles could be without the services of Victor Moses in next weekend's Russia 2018 World Cup qualifiers against Zambia in Ndola, reports NaijaSportsXtra.blogspot.com.
The Chelsea FC of England winger who picked up the Man-Of-The-Match (MOTM) award following his superb form in the 2-0 victory against Hull City injured his hamstring injury during the game.
Moses who dropped the bomb-shell on his Twitter handle hours after the game, has a 50-50 chance of playing against the Chipolopolo as he would be assessed by the Blues medical staff.
"Buzzing with the win today brilliant team performance and great 3 points. Our fans were amazing! ‪#CFC.‬
"Unfortunately I'm feeling my hamstring and so the club medical team will be reviewing me. Will be working hard to get fit asap ‪#CFC," his tweet read on @VIctorMoses.‬
‪Recall Leon Balogun was the first casualty for Gernot Rohr's Eagles, as the Mainz 05 defender suffered an hamstring injury two weeks ago while playing in a Bundesliga game.‬
‪Granada of Spain, Uche Agbo was later called up to replace the injured Balogun.‬
