“We are here for a purpose, and our target is the three points,” Troost-Ekong told (link unavailable) “We have spoken among ourselves about the need to go hard for it from the first blast of the referee’s whistle.
It’s going to be a tough game because Rwanda has a good team and got a point from their first match. We must not relent throughout the 90 minutes.”
The Super Eagles are coming off a 3-0 win against Benin Republic in their previous qualifying match, while Rwanda drew 1-1 with Libya.
Troost-Ekong’s confidence and determination will undoubtedly inspire his teammates as they seek to secure another victory.
