The Chelsea player has only played once for Nigeria in Brazil and has not played again since after he was substituted in the first game against Iran on June 16.
Various reports have been bandied about as to why Moses has had a limited appearance at the tournament,with some claiming that he fell out with the Super Eagles coach Stephen Keshi,while others say he is injured.
Even the player himself is sending out the message that he is injured which has forced him out of the team.
"great win for us the lads were brilliant and the fans were amazing. I hope to be fit for the Argentina game after ..." Moses tweeted via his official Twitter page after the win against Bosnia.
After the loss to Argentina he equally posted "the lads were brilliant again yesterday and did the country proud. gutted to miss it again with a muscle strain bu..."
However,a report on Vanguard Sports claims that Moses fell out with the coach which led to his being sidelined,with Keshi even claiming that he is unaware of the player's injury
“Victor Moses has not taken his exclusion well. He refused to be part of the team’s warm-up for the Argentina match,” an official was quoted to have said.
“This kind of behaviour is not good for team spirit.”Victor Moses was pulled out in the opening group game against Iran and he has since not been in action for the African champions. The player has claimed he was injured and so missed the game against Bosnia-Herzegovina.
Moses is believed to have been excluded because of his inability to effectively help out the defence,and after finding out that he wasn't in the team to play Argentina he refused to seat on the bench and opted for the stands.
It is left to be seen if Moses will be drafted back into the team now that Michael Babatunde has been ruled out has failed to back track and help the defence when he has played.
