Victor Osimhen, a Super Eagles striker, has remarked that his team has not yet played their greatest game at the ongoing 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.
Nigeria has three victories and one draw from four games in Cote d’Ivoire.
These results featured triumphs over hosts Côte d’Ivoire and Cameroon.
Despite their consistent gains throughout the tournament, Osimhen believes they still have a lot to contribute.
“I cannot lie, we haven’t played the best of our football yet. I think the whole team has this mentality of winning, we want to win,” Osimhen told reporters.
“For me we are more like a family than just players. So for me it is important to have this mentality of winning.
“I want to give kudos to my defenders. They have been focused since the start of this competition. We also have a good goalkeeper [Nwabali]. We want to keep this momentum going.”
The Super Eagles will take on Angola in a quarter-final fixture on Friday.
