AFCON 2023: We Know What To Do To Improve —Super Eagles Defender, Ajayi

Semi Ajayi has said he and his Super Eagles teammates know exactly what to do to put things right as they prepare to face AFCON 2023 hosts Côte d’Ivoire in their next Group A game.

Despite going into Sunday’s game as favourites, the Eagles could only settle for a 1-1 draw against Equatorial Guinea.

The football minnows scored against the run of play in the first half through Iban Edu before Victor Osimhen equalized just two minutes later.

The Eagles were also guilty of missing begging opportunities which would have put the game to bed.

Following the draw, Ajayi pointed out that the Eagles must be clinical in front of goal.

“We created a lot of chances but we need to be more clinical and we are working on that to put things right in the next game.

“We spoke with each other, we know what we need to do to improve and we will definitely put in the work to make sure we get things right for the next game.”

The Eagles will now hope to get their campaign on track when they take on Côte d’Ivoire on Thursday.

In their last meeting in the AFCON in the quarter-finals stage at the 2013 edition the Eagles won 2-1.
