Liberia’s President George Weah on Monday urged Nigeria to get their preparation right for the World Cup and avoid wranglings over cash that have plagued previous appearances. “I have played with great Nigerian players, I played against them. Now you have a new generation, the fact that they qualified is a good thing for Nigeria,” he said. “So, let the players not have an excuse, support them and bring back the cup,” he added. Weah’s comments echo those of Nigeria coach Gernot Rohr, who has said he wants “stable preparations and credible participations… without any distractions”.
