Jose Peseiro, the Super Eagles head coach, has noted that his boys will secure a semi-final ticket if they raise their game against Angola in their quarter-final fixture on Friday.
Peseiro said this in a post via his X account on Sunday following Nigeria’s AFCON Round of 16 victory against Cameroon on Saturday.
Peseiro’s men defeated Cameroon 2-0, courtesy of two goals from Ademola Lookman .
Nigeria will face Angola in the AFCON last eight on Friday.
“Yesterday against Cameroon, we got an excellent win in yet another game without conceding a goal and where our boys were huge,” Peseiro tweeted.
“Great spirit and humility! Once again, they did Nigeria proud. Friday against Angola, we’ll have to be even better if we want to win a place in the semi-finals.”
