“I must confess that the Super Eagles have been pitted in a group that they should easily qualify from.
” But then, football is not mathematics where you can easily predict teams that will win. However, the Super Eagles must work very hard and never underestimate their opponents if they are to qualify for the 2023 AFCON.
“Sao Tome, Guinea-Bissau and Sierra Leone will be tough knot to crack for Nigeria regardless of the players in our disposal. Every team wants to prove a point and we have seen what Guunea Bissau and Sierra Leone can do at the last 2021 AFCON.
