Following the withdrawal of Egypt from the football event, Nigeria are assured of qualifying for the semi - finals on the back of their 2 - 0 win over Ghana on Wednesday.
“Having qualified for the semi finals we are going all out to top the group, so we have to avoid defeat against the Senegalese,” Azubuike Okechukwu told thenff.com.
Coach Samson Siasia and his medical staff are sweating on the fitness of Sincere Seth ahead of the tie against the West Africans but on a positive note, Daniel Etor has resumed full training with the squad.
