At the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations, the Super Eagles’ captain, Ahmed Musa, recounted the team’s thrilling win over arch-rivals Cameroon.
Felix Houphouet Boigny Stadium in Abidjan will host another exciting match between the two teams on Saturday.
Five years ago in Egypt, the Super Eagles and the Indomitable Lions faced off at the same stage of the competition.
Nigeria triumphed in Alexandria, earning a well-deserved 3-2 victory.
Thenff.com quoted Musa as saying, “That game was a tough duel and brought out the best in us, especially when we went 1-2 down despite scoring first.”
We told ourselves in the dressing room that we could not let that happen. We were glad to win in the end since we played for each other.
This time around, Musa is anticipating another challenging matchup with Rigobert Song’s guys.
Naturally, we are aware that this Saturday’s encounter will be significantly more difficult. The people of Cameroon will be adamant about winning, yet we will give it everything we have. We are able to repeat it. Nothing has altered our goal of winning the trophy, the winger continued.
