Speaking to News Central, Oliseh said, "The task ahead is a difficult one, but it is not impossible. We can still qualify.
“Of course, we need to get some perfect results. Of course, we need that. We are four points behind, and it is not like we are the only one.

“There [are] two or three teams who [have] the same points, which makes it more difficult when you are playing these teams.
“But that, notwithstanding, is not undoable if you are a Nigerian. We had to do that in 2002 to go to the World Cup when I was captain.
