Nigerian striker, Adefolarin Durosinmi, has backed the Super Eagles to go all the way and win the ongoing African Cup of Nations tournament in Ivory Coast after they defeated Cameroon 2-0 last Saturday in Abidjan.
The Nakhon Pathom United star in Thailand hailed the Eagles for their victory over Cameroon, which qualified them for the quarter final of the competition.
He said,” It was a great win for the Eagles and that victory has sparked a lot of confidence among every Nigerian.
“It was a spirited and professional performance from the team. They knew it wasn’t going to be easy and they were ready to fight.
“To be honest I want them to win the AFCON and I believe we can win a fourth AFCON title in Ivory Coast of they stick together like they did.”
Adefolarin Durosinmi has scored six goals in 15 games this season across all competition in Thailand’s topflight league also believes striker Victor Osimhen will inspire the Eagles to a fourth AFCON title.
The Napoli star scored in the Eagles’ opening fixture draw with Equatorial Guinea, before winning the penalty that decided their matchday two clash against the hosts.
The Napoli man robbed Oumar Gonzalez of a ball he had no right to in the first half, shook off the attentions of the defender, and then kept his composure to make the best possible decision under pressure by playing in Lookman for a clean look at Fabrice Ondoa’s goal.
“Osimhen with the help of the team can lead the Eagles all the way to the title,” Durosinmi continued.
“He has had a hand in the goals we have scored so far, he is one of the key players in the team.”
The Eagles will face Angola on Friday for a place on the semi-final.
