Peseiro also drooled over the Akpabio Stadium.
How come no one has mentioned this? Is there concerted effort by some here to suppress information about the only 2 world class stadiums in Nigeria... the Akpabio Sadium in Uyo and the great Adokier Amiesimaka Satdium in Port Harcourt?
Godswill Akpabio Stadium May Host AFCON Qualifiers As Peseiro Seeks NFF’s Nod
by Iniobong Ekponta 4 days ago in Sports
Super Eagles Head Coach, Jose Peseiro, has described the 30,000 -capacity Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, Uyo (Nest of Champions), as a world class stadium with modern facilities.
Coach Peseiro was in Uyo, the Akwa Ibom State capital as a big guest for the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) match day 35, between Akwa United Football Club of Uyo and Plateau United at the weekend.
He was later on a guided inspection of the stadium facility on Sunday by the Akwa United’s Chairman, who doubles as the Senior Special Assistant (SSA) to the Governor on Sports, Elder Paul Bassey.
The Portuguese alongside his assistant, Acacio Santos, inspected the natural grass in the main bowl, the two training pitches, dressing rooms, referees’ room, conference rooms, the stadium environment among others.
Speaking after the inspection, Peseiro said he was impressed with the facilities at the stadium, noting that “despite being used weekly by Akwa United and Dakkada FC for their NPFL matches, the quality of the pitch as well as the facilities have been properly maintained”.
“This is a good stadium, feels like Europe and the standard of the facility is world class. I came here to watch the match and to check the stadium and I must say that the stadium is big and in a nice condition.
On whether he would impress it on the NFF to shift the next Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers to Uyo, considering the poor turf of the MKO Abiola Stadium at Abuja, Peseiro said:
“I am happy that aside Abuja stadium we have another big stadium here, I am going round to inspect the stadiums we have in Nigeria and at the end, I will give my advice and the NFF will take the decision, it is not up to me,” he added.
The Lord is my Shepherd. I shall not be in want.

We watched this very boring video, 500 times, of Sacchi doing defensive drills, using sticks and without the ball, with Maldini, Baresi and Albertini. We used to think before then that if the other players are better, you have to lose. After that we learned anything is possible – you can beat better teams by using tactics." Jurgen Klopp

What's not compliment?
The statement is in comparison to the eyesore and grazing ground we saw in Abuja and Lagos the past few matches.

He was there specifically to watch the Akwa united vs Plateau United game AND to INSPECT the stadium. He inspected both main pitch and the training pitches and came to the conclussion that the stadium is world class.

Re: Peseiro also drooled over the Akpabio Stadium.
We have watched the SE play there in several games.
Unless the suggestion is that the pitch has been worked on...
Its a bumpy pitch. Better than Abuja or Lagos, certainly.
But still a bumpy pitch...

Re: Peseiro also drooled over the Akpabio Stadium.
The best I have ever seen the Uyo pitch was in the Nigeria B team v Athletico Madrid. The quality was of the highest standard. I don't know if it was because a top European team was coming to play on it was the reason why the pitch was prepared to world class standards.
I am happy
Re: Peseiro also drooled over the Akpabio Stadium.
In other words, the pitch is a non issue since it can be repaired in a short time. Right?
