It will be difficult but we will do everything possible tomorrow. We want to have our first AFCON win tomorrow.”
The much-anticipated encounter is set to take place at the Felix Houphouet Boigny Stadium in Abidjan, with kick-off scheduled for 6:00 pm Nigerian time. Guinea-Bissau’s fervent aspiration to clinch their first AFCON triumph against Nigeria is poised to ignite an electrifying battle on the pitch.
