“Egypt, as we all know, have won the most number of titles (seven times) in the AFCON and are a very strong side with one of the best coaches and players.”
“The attackers didn’t play as a team, especially in the second half. Everyone wanted to make a mark for himself by putting their name on the scoresheet.”
The Blue Sharks of Cape Verde defeated Ethiopia 1-0 to earn their first victory at the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) since 2013.
On Tuesday, Nigeria will face Egypt in Group D at the Roumde Adjia Stadium, Garoua.
Osimhen’s participation at AFCON has been reeled in controversy due to his health issues.
“A team that does not have a minimum of eleven (11) players available will be considered to have lost the match 0-2.”
“I know it won’t be a walk in the park, but I so much believe in the ability of my brother Eguaveon…”
Eguavoen demanded “100 per cent commitment from the boys,” pointing out that he had explained the way “I want them to play.”
Mr Wright speaking on his Instagram live broadcast says the coverage of the African tournament is tinged with racism and disrespect especially with the kind of questions asked.
Napoli Football Club announced that Osimhen tested positive to COVID-19 and has been ordered to go into self-isolation, making him a big doubt for AFCON.
