AFCON: Fight for every ball – Osimhen sends message to Super Eagles teammates

Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen has urged his teammates to fight for every ball ahead of their 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, AFCON, opener against Tanzania on Tuesday.

Osimhen also encouraged Eric Chelle’s squad to strive for victory in each match as they aim to reach the 2025 AFCON final in Morocco.

“This AFCON is an opportunity for us to do well and try to make sure that we win the tournament,” Osimhen told Pooja Media.

“Of course, it is not going to be easy; we have to fight for every game, fight for every ball.

“We have to try to win every game and see if we can get to the final and win it.”

Osimhen will now hope to lead the Super Eagles to claim the trophy this time around in Morocco after Nigeria finished runner-up in the last edition in Ivory Coast.
