He did not confide in any of his team-mates or the Nigerian Football Federation before the match because he didn’t want it to be a distraction.
He said; “Four hours before kick-off, I received a call from Nigeria that my father Pa Michael Obi had been kidnapped for the second time. He was on his way to a funeral in south-eastern Nigeria from Jos when he was abducted along the Makurdi-Enugu expressway.”
