Former Cameroon goalkeeper Joseph-Antoine Bell says this could very well be the best AFCON tournament he has witnessed.
Bafana Bafana assistant coach Helman Mkhalele has recalled the tough conditions that surrounded their 2-0 loss to Nigeria in the 2000 Africa Cup of Nations semi-final in Lagos.
In his press conference after Nigeria sealed their spot in the AFCON semifinals, coach Jose Peseiro felt vindicated in his initial assessment that friendly matches were not a true reflection of The Super Eagles.
To many, Nigeria appeared to pass their test against Angola in the quarterfinals with flying colours to book a ticket to the last four of the AFCON.
Nigeria winger Moses Simon says he sacrificed being the hero when setting up teammate Ademola Lookman to score the goal that sent The Super Eagles to the AFCON semifinals.
Nigeria secured a narrow 1-0 victory over Angola, securing their place in the Africa Cup of Nations semi-finals courtesy of a first-half goal by Ademola Lookman.
