Fulham midfielder, Alex Iwobi concedes that securing a victory against Cote d’Ivoire today is imperative for silencing critics following Nigeria’s underwhelming performance in the Africa Cup
Iwobi told Nigerian media: “We’re excited. We thought we should have won. We know it’s not going to be easy but we’ll analyse the team and see what we can do.
“The only way to correct that impression is if we win. As long as you win, all of a sudden you’re giving your best. That’s the only way to keep the critics quiet.
“I always enjoy playing for the national team. To win (AFCON) would be my biggest dream, so hopefully that is something I can achieve.”
