William Troost-Ekong has said the Super Eagles must brace up for a difficult test against the Cheetahs of Benin Republic.
Augustine Eguavoen’s side will be up against their fellow West Africans in a 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying matchday five encounter on Thursday.
The encounter will hold at the Felix Houphet Boigny Stadium, Abidjan.
The game will kick-off at 7pm local time (8pm Nigeria time).
“The stadium is a familiar one for us and we have good memories from the AFCON. We will rather focus on the positive results we have taken away from here and work hard for another good day in the office on Thursday,” Troost-Ekong told thenff.com.
“It is not going to be easy because the Beninoise are also chasing a ticket to the final tournament. However, our objective is clear: three points on the night.”
