The Ikorodu City FC of Lagos left-back, who can also play in central defence, acknowledged that once the home-based players step up their efforts, they would surely get a better result against the Sudanese.
“Our coming out for the next game will be 100% effort,” declared the smooth-talking defender, who played 22 minutes of the clash with Senegal.
“With that, I believe we will definitely end up with something good. We hope to improve on what we did in the first game.”
Sports247 reports that the CHAN Eagles must win Tuesday’s fixture in the Indian Ocean island of Zanzibar to stand any chance of qualifying for the knock-out stage of the ongoing championship.
This is because the Nigerians lie last without a point on the log ahead of the second stage of Group D games, with Senegal top on three points, while Sudan and Congo follow with a point each.
