Super Eagles striker, Tolu Arokodare, has acknowledged that he has yet to be very fruitful for the team.
He said he had made a good start at Ajax but was yet to score as many goals for Nigeria as he would have liked.
Speaking ahead of the Super Eagles match against Taifa Stars of Tanzania, holding in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State on Friday, he said playing for a club and representing the national team required different approaches and styles, adding that he would continue working hard to improve.
“I haven’t really scored as much with the national team. But I think it’s fair to say that every time I’ve come here, whether playing or not, I’ve done my part in helping and supporting the team.
“We help each other improve, and obviously, the goals haven’t been coming as much as they do at club level. But, as we all know, playing for your country and playing for a club are different, with different styles and dynamics,” Arokodare said.
He said he would remain patient and positive while working towards replicating his club form with the national team.
Arokodare added that the players understood what was at stake and would work together to secure maximum points for Nigeria on Friday.
