“I think if we play with the same passion and intensity as we played against Cameroon, I think the boys will get the job done. That’s just the truth.
But if they go out and start very slow, sluggishly, I think it will be a very long night. But I see Nigeria going through for sure. I see us going through,” expressed Igiebor.
The former midfielder’s comments reflect the need for consistency and a strong start in the upcoming crucial match.
Igiebor, who experienced playing for the national team, understands the dynamics of tournament football and the significance of maintaining a high level of performance.
As the Super Eagles progress in the AFCON, Nosa Igiebor’s insights serve as a reminder to the team about the importance of approaching each game with determination and focus to achieve their goals in the competition.
