Super Eagles star Ahmed Musa has revealed that the team will play a better game when they take on the Pharaohs of Egypt in a friendly. Nigeria will take on the North Africans on a friendly match today at the Stephen Keshi Stadium in Asaba, Delta State. The team won 3-1 in their last African Cup of Nations qualifier with Seychelles over the weekend. While speaking ahead of the clash with Egypt, he admitted that the game will be tough but expressed optimism that Gernot Rohr’s men will triumph.
“We are going to play an improved game against Egypt. It was a tough game for us against Seychelles because the pitch is not too good if we compare it with the type of pitch we use at our various clubs,†Musa said.
We will lift our game because we know that this is the final friendly game window before the preparations for the AFCON will start proper.
We spoke to ourselves after the disappointment of the World Cup in Russia and we have not lost any game since then.â€
The kick-off time for the match is 4 pm.
