‘Believe In The Team’, Says Super Eagles Captain Musa
Super Eagles captain Ahmed Musa said fans should “believe in the team”, emphasising the squad’s confidence and determination to secure victory as one of the favourites to win the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) in Cote d’Ivoire.
Having clinched its last AFCON title in 2013, Nigeria are aiming for a fourth championship in the upcoming tournament.
Despite entering AFCON with just one win in their last five games, Musa is optimistic about the Super Eagles’ chances, citing the quality of the squad.
