AFCON 2023: Jose Peseiro Eager To Claim Title On First Attempt
Super Eagles of Nigeria Manager, Jose Peseiro emphasizes the significance of reaching the Africa Cup of Nations final and expresses his desire to win the title in his debut attempt.
The team, facing hosts Cote d’Ivoire, persevered through initial challenges to secure their place in the tournament decider at the Alassanne Ouattara Stadium, Ebimpe, Abidjan.
Being a first-time coach of a national team in Africa, Peseiro has set his sights on lifting the trophy.
The gaffer however, during a press conference in Abidjan on Saturday said that, “Playing a final is always important. This is my first AFCON. Some were saying it’s been special, and I can attest to that. The emotions in Africa are very special. All of this in my opinion, is a great way to learn and I would live to win it with the Nigerian team tomorrow.
“I learnt tremendously here. There is joy when you win but difficult when you lose so it is very important to find a balance. We have a great squad of players that really want to win this for Nigeria. Some are new-comers to the squad but have played in other competitions. Football brings a long of emotion, more than any sport and this is important for Nigeria.”
