"I can see from both eyes. It's just it's a little bit swollen, so it's hard to open them," Agberhiere told WLR. "They [the doctors] said I should be able to see. That my vision will get to how it was before. "When I got it.... I thought I would never be able to see again. That was what I thought 100 percent, that I would never be able to see another thing in my life."Republic of Ireland manager Mick McCarthy wished Agberhiere well as in his recovery attempts and added that he hopes to see the promising teenager return to the pitch sometime soon. https://twitter.com/wlrfm/status/1123886225524494336 “I was shocked to hear what happened to Tega and his friends in Waterford”, said McCarthy, “and I am sure I speak on behalf of everyone involved with football in Ireland when I wish them all well as they recover from the effects of this attack. “I know Tega is a very promising young footballer and I hope and pray that he is back on the pitch in the very near future. My best wishes to Tega, to his friends and to their families.”
