WE WANT TO WIN 2023 AFCON – SUPER EAGLES COACH PESEIRO
Super Eagles head coach, Jose Peseiro, has emphasised that he wants to help Nigeria win the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.
The country last won it in 2013 under the guidance of the late Stephen Keshi, and the Portuguese tactician had pledged to fulfil Nigerians’ dreams by bringing home the trophy.
Speaking ahead of Nigeria’s international friendly against Algeria, Peseiro claimed that the match would prepare his team for the next AFCON competition in Ivory Coast.
“I want to win, and also prepare the team to win the next AFCON tournament,” the coach said when asked about his expectation.
“Algeria is a good team. Of course, our goal is to win the next AFCON, but for that, we need to create the habit to win, it’s the main point. You introduce some younger players, introduce the tactical works, introduce the situation and dynamics, but at the same time, you want to win; you must create the habit to win. Every time, we want to win, to become the best national team in Africa, we must create that habit, and we want to win.”
