Super Eagles head coach, José Peseiro has called on his side to be more clinical up front despite boasting the strongest defence at the ongoing 2023 Africa Cup of Nations in Cote d’Ivoire.
The Super Eagles are into the semi-finals after a 1-0 win over Angola.
It was their fourth straight clean sheet at the competition.
The coach and his players are now two matches away from a fourth triumph for Nigeria.
While praising Nigeria’s defensive solidity, Peseiro hopes to see improvements in attack.
“Once again we played without conceding, scored a goal, but I would have liked more. The team could have created more opportunities,” he told CAFonline. READ ALSO:

With just six goals scored in five games, the Portuguese feels Nigeria aren’t capitalizing on their quality.
“We are a quality team, Angola was very good, but we had more luck. I remain satisfied with my players but want us to be more efficient,” Peseiro added.
