Former Super Eagles coach Sunday Oliseh has shared insights on what could hinder Nigeria from clinching the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) title in Morocco.
The ex-Juventus midfielder discussed this on a recent episode of Global Football Insights, prior to Nigeria’s AFCON match against Uganda on Tuesday evening.
Oliseh stated: “What could impede Nigeria's chances of winning the AFCON is if we fail to strengthen our defense, ensuring that when we score, we also prevent conceding goals.”
“One advantage we possess is that we have one of the most formidable attacking lineups in the tournament.”
The last time Nigeria secured the AFCON title was in 2013 under the late coach Stephen Keshi.
The Super Eagles triumphed over Burkina Faso 1–0 in the final held in South Africa, with Sunday Mba scoring the decisive goal.
