The Super Eagles play against South Africa on Wednesday. Aina is full of energy for the match
Super Eagles defender Ola Aina says he is looking forward to playing against South Africa in the 2023 African Cup of Nations semi-finals on Wednesday, reports Soccernet.ng .
The Super Eagles will be hoping to book a ticket to the final against South Africa at the Stade de la Paix on Wednesday. Both teams have performed well so far, but Nigeria is on paper a slight favorite due to their quality.
Nigeria has had a strong rivalry with South Africa since the 1990s, with the two countries recently clashing after a South African artiste beat Tyra Davido and Burna Boy at the Grammy Awards.
Before the match, Nigeria defender Aina said he was looking forward to the match against South Africa.
According to Soccernet.ng, Aina said: “I’m very excited myself. It’s going to be a good match between the two teams and I think me and the team are ready for this challenge. ” he said.
The winner of the duel will face the winner of the Ivory Coast vs. Democratic Republic of the Congo match for a chance to play in the final on February 11th.
