AFCON 2023: Peseiro not thinking about revenge against Guinea-Bissau

Super Eagles head coach, Jose Peseiro says revenge is not on his mind ahead of his side’s 2023 Africa Cup of Nations Group A clash with Guinea-Bissau.

The Djurtus defeated the Super Eagles 1-0 in Abuja during the qualifiers.

Both teams will clash again at the Felix Houphouet Boigny Stadium, Abidjan, on Monday (today).

Peseiro said he is focused on helping the Super Eagles beat Baciro Cande’s men.

“We are not thinking about revenge but we are here to top the group and they are in our sights.

“We must do what has to be done. Guinea Bissau have no point and will play with freedom, and that is when a team becomes dangerous,” Peseiro said during pre-match press conference.

Nigeria occupy second position in the group with four points from two games.

A point will be enough for the Super Eagles to book a place in the Round of 16.
