By Saheed Afolabi (Live In Morocco)
Nigeria gaffer, Eric Chelle is looking at exploiting Morocco Weaknesses when both teams clash in the semifinal of the 2025 Africa Cup Of Nations (AFCON) at the Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium, Rabat on Wednesday, January 14th.
The three time Africa champions faces the Atlas Lions who have won the AFCON just once and faces huge pressure playing in front of their fans.
Chelle is confident on the Super Eagles strengths as the team faces their biggest game of the continental showpiece.
The tactician said Nigeria is ready for the encounter against the Atlas Lions which promises to be a blockbuster game.
“Morocco is a big team too, they have lots of strengths, some weaknesses too and we’ll try to find the best way for us,” Chelle said at the prematch Press Conference in Rabat.
“Morocco is the biggest test, every game is the biggest test of this team. We’re ready for this game, for all these games that we’re playing. In this tournament, we try to play every game like it’s the last, we will give everything.”
Nigeria remains the only to replicate their last four finish at the last AFCON in Cote D’ Ivore in Morocco. Though, the Eagles finished behind Ivory Coast in second place, they are more sophisticated in the 2025 edition of the continental showpiece.
