Daniel Igali, the president of the Nigeria Wrestling Federation NWF, said today in Abuja the Super Eagles can defeat Cote d’Ivoire in their second match of the ongoing 2023 Africa Cup of Nations AFCON.
The Super Eagles will face the Elephants of Cote D’Ivoire in their second match, on Thursday at the Stade Olympique Alassane Ouattara, Abidjan.
Igali said he is very optimistic that the Eagles will do all they can to scale through to the second round of the tournament.
“This second match is a very crucial one for the Super Eagles and they must put all their strength and tactics to win it.
“The Ivorian team is highly rated in Africa and they have some of the best footballers playing professional leagues all over the world.
