--Says it’ll boost Eagles ahead Brazil 2014 World Cup
Hapoel Be’er Sheva of Israel goalkeeper, Austin Ejide has wished John Obi Mikel success in their UEFA Champions League campaign saying he would be delighted if Mikel and Chelsea go all the way to lift the European most prized club side honour.
“I know the semi finals of the championship will be tough with all four qualifiers potential champions”, Ejide said when Complete Sports called him up after UEFA conducted the semi final draws last Friday with Mikel’s Chelsea drawn against Atletico Madrid in one of the semi final pairings.
“But were it to be in my hands, I would give it to Chelsea, they have a strong squad and of course my brother and Super Eagles teammate is in the team.
“A win for them over Atletico and even in the final of the championship will be good for him as a player and for us (Super Eagles) going into the World Cup in Brazil”, the former Bastia of France goaltender stressed.
Bayern Munich will trade tackles with Real Madrid in the other semi final fixture slated for next week.
