Super Eagles striker, Odion Ighalo, has expressed his only fear about Banana Banana of South Africa, whom they will battle on Wednesday.
It is the quarter final of the African Cup of Nations going on in Egypt
Although he said Nigeria was ready for the game, he said one major thing he and his teammates had to prepare against was the opponents’ speed.
He said, “We are ready ahead of tomorrow’s match we are aware the Egyptians are with us – we are the actors here so we need to be careful playing the Bafana Bafana because we are aware of how fast and good they are”.

After netting a brace in Nigeria’s 3-2 win over Cameroon on Saturday, Ighalo claimed his contributions were all about getting a win and not his goal tally.
Ighalo also provided an assist for Alex Iwobi’s match-winning effort, which guided the Super Eagles to the quarterfinals of the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations.
