“It’s quite interesting. We have always been waiting for this moment.

“We will face every team as they come. One after the other. 

“We are not discussing winning the AFCON. We are discussing and planning how to win each match. Following each other. We’ll fight.

“This is most likely the most difficult group. I’m thinking about football in West, South, North, and East Africa.

These are great nations, but we must brace ourselves for the assault.

Everyone on those teams will feel like they are in Nigeria.

We respect each other and are a little afraid of losing. As a result, we must prepare so that we do not lose,” Nduka told CAF media.
