Completesportsnigeria.com's ADEBOYE AMOSU of Completes Sports rated the Super Eagles after their 1-1 draw with Egypt in Kaduna…
Carl Ikeme 6/10
The Wolves goalkeeper made a brilliant save to deny Koka in the 18th minute. He was not at fault for the Pharaohs' equalising goal.
Stanley Amuzie 4/10
The left-back struggled to cope with the pace of Mohamed Salah and was the weakest link in Nigeria's defence.

Did well to curtail the Egyptian attackers until that unfortunate late minute strike by Mohamed Salah.

EFE AMBROSE 6/10
The Celtic defender did his defensive job well, though he was bit sloppy at times. He improved like the rest of the team in the second half.

SHEHU ABDULLAHI 5/10
An average performance from the right-back. He was a constant threat on the right side for Nigeria, but his final delivery was most times awful.

OGHENEKARO ETEBO 8/10
Played in an unfamiliar holding midfield role and put up a good showing in his debut appearance for the Super Eagles. He scored his side's only goal in the game.

KELECHI IHEANACHO 5/10
A subdued performance from the Manchester City youngster in what was his first start for the Super Eagles. Had a hand in Nigeria's only goal in the game though.

MIKEL OBI 6/10
Improved like the rest of the team after break and gave an above average performance in his first game as captain of the side.
AHMED MUSA 5/10
Started the game brightly, but fizzled out afterwards. He was duly replaced by Victor Moses in the second half.

MOSES SIMON 7/10
The Belgium-based winger was Nigeria's most potent attacking threat in the game. Contender for man of the match.

ODION IGHALO 5/10
The Watford forward was far from his best in the game. He missed a good chance to put his side ahead a minute before the break and was denied by the opposing goalkeeper in the second half.

SUBSTITUTES
AMINU UMAR 6/10
Took the place of Kelechi Iheanacho. He was lively when he came on and will surely push for a starting berth in the return fixture.

VICTOR MOSES 6/10
The pacy winger had a goal bound effort cleared off the line few minutes after replacing Ahmed Musa and troubled the Pharaohs's defence for the entire period he spent on the pitch.

ALEX IWOBI 4/10
The youngster proved his class after coming on late in the game. He is surely one for the future.
