Ahmed Musa, the Super Eagles forward, has issued a stern warning to his teammates ahead of their 2023 AFCON qualifier against Sierra Leone. Musa, who has been in fine form lately, stressed the importance of not underestimating their opponents in the crucial fixture to seal qualification to next year’s AFCON.
The Eagles have had a decent run so far in the qualifiers, with nine points from four games, placing them second in Group A behind Guinea-Bissau. However, Musa acknowledges that they cannot afford to be complacent against Sierra Leone, who have proven to be worthy foes.
Musa, who is known for his speed and agility on the pitch, urged his teammates to work hard and not rely solely on their star power. He emphasized that Sierra Leone is a formidable opponent and that they would need to put in a lot of effort to secure the three points.
As the Eagles prepare to take on Sierra Leone, Musa is confident that they can emerge victorious if they give it their all. He reiterated the importance of the game and the need to go all out for a win, which would guarantee automatic qualification to the AFCON.
In conclusion, it is clear that Musa and his teammates are taking this fixture very seriously, and rightly so. With their eyes set on the prize, they must be on top of their game and play to the best of their abilities. Only then can they hope to overcome Sierra Leone and secure their spot in next year’s AFCON.
