So I don’t think that the understanding is a problem for them,” said the former Everton defender. Reflecting on the team’s performance at the last AFCON, the former Olympique Marseille defender noted their near success ti secure their fourth AFCON trophy. “We’ve shown that at the last AFCON, we got to the finals. We were very unlucky not to win [against Cote d’Ivoire]. So if we can build on that momentum and take it further, then I think we can get to the finals and hopefully win it this time again,” he added. Nigeria’s three previous AFCON victories came in 1980, 1994, and 2013. With this, the Super Eagles are determined to end their 12-year title drought in the 2025 tournament.
