In the build-up to the AFCON 2023 showdown against Ivory Coast, Bright Osayi-Samuel, the dynamic right-back from Fernabache, expressed unwavering confidence in the Super Eagles. Despite a disappointing draw against Equatorial Guinea, Osayi-Samuel remained optimistic, highlighting Nigeria’s resilience in facing formidable opponents.

Osayi-Samuel, known for his versatility and impactful performances, addressed the missed opportunities in the previous match, emphasizing the team’s commitment to delivering a strong reaction against Ivory Coast. With two goals and an assist in the Turkish Super Lig this season, he remains a pivotal figure for both club and country.

The 26-year-old, linked with potential moves to Leeds and Crystal Palace, diverted focus to the upcoming clash, dismissing distractions and stressing the squad’s belief in overcoming challenges. Osayi-Samuel’s reassurance sets the tone for a determined Super Eagles squad, poised to showcase their best against Ivory Coast in a crucial encounter.

“Honestly of course we wanted to win, it’s a bit disappointing because a big nation like us every game we are expected to win,” said the Fenerbahce defender said.

“If you look at Egypt, how they lost their first game and got to the final last AFCON. So for me I think of course we want to win but we shouldn’t put our heads down too much.

“We have a game in the next four days and I believe in everyone in this team and I think next game will be a reaction.

“I believe that with the squad that we have the game against Ivory Coast we will do our best, when we play against those big teams that’s when we do better we know what it takes and everyone is confident.“

As the anticipation builds, Nigerian football enthusiasts eagerly await the outcome of the clash, hoping for a triumphant performance that reflects Osayi-Samuel’s confidence in the Super Eagles’ abilities.
