Former Super Eagles coach, Sunday Oliseh, has debuted his work with Dutch second division club, Fortuna Sittard with a win.

The 42-year-old who resigned as Nigeria’s national coach at about 2:28am on February 26, 2016 got off to a fine start as he led his team to a 1-0 away victory against relegation bound Achilles 29.

A 58th minute strike by Gavin Vlijter was all Fortunezen needed to secure all three points which is their sixth of the season from 20 matches.
