Last Super Eagles Player To Score Against South Africa : We Are Here To Beat Bafana Bafana
Published: November 16, 2018Ahmed Musa wants the Super Eagles to make it four wins out of four when they face South Africa in an Africa Cup of Nations qualifier tomorrow in Soccer City, even though a draw will be enough for the team to qualify for next year's tournament in Cameroon.
The former Leicester City striker is the last Super Eagles player to score a goal against Bafana Bafana, three years ago in an international friendly which ended in a 1-1 draw in Nelspruit.
"Our determination is to win and pick our ticket to the AFCON ahead of the final matchday next year,'' Musa told thenff.com.
''South Africa came to Nigeria to beat us and we are here to return the compliment.
"We will not be playing for a draw. We won in Seychelles and against Libya in Tunisia and we are here to win as well.

''They are a strong team and we will not under –rate them. But we are here for the three points.''
Nigeria have failed to beat South Africa in the last four meetings between the two countries, drawing three and losing 2-0 on match day one of the AFCONQ in June 2017 in Uyo.
