Troost-Ekong tips Nigeria to win AFCON 2021

 

William Troost-Ekong has expressed the desire to rule the continent with the Super Eagles at the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon.

The three-time African champions top Group L of the Cameroon 2021 qualifiers with six points from two games.

They face the Leone Stars of Sierra Leone in a double-header, first on Friday at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium, Benin City, and next week Tuesday at the Siaka Stevens Stadium, Freetown.

Four points from the two games will be enough for the Super Eagles to book their ticket to the competition

Troost-Ekong, who was part of the team that came third at the 2019 AFCON in Egypt is already thinking of winning a fourth title with the Super Eagles.

“We are hungry. We have been waiting for this game for over year now. We are going to for a win. Everyone is ready,” Troost-Ekong, who plays for Championship club Watford told reporters.

“We want to qualify for the next AFCON and possibly win it.”
