Chief Coach of the Super Eagles of Nigeria, Stephen Keshi made good his decision to exclude one of Nigeria’s best players in Europe in 2013/2014 season, Ike Uche, as he released a 30-man provisional list for the World Cup Tournament holding in Brazil this year in June. Keshi had earlier said that the Villareal of Spain striker lacked tactical discipline, and as such he would not be looking in his direction for a striking role in the Super Eagles.
