AFCON 2019: Eagles won’t stop fighting – Ndidi
Ndidi Wilfred was massive for Nigeria in midfield as they secured qualification to the round of 16 of the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) courtesy a 1-0 win over Guinea and has promised that the Super Eagles won’t rest on its laurels.
The 22-year-old Leicester City defensive midfielder played for 90minutes and helped neutralise the impact of Syli nationale’s dangerman, Naby keita – the Liverpool man got frustrated and was substituted.
Legenes defender, Kenneth Omeruo was the hero for the three-time African champions with a headed goal in the second half to hand Nigeria the three points at stake.
Ndidi tweeted after the match: ‘Good fight from the boys, we keep going.’
