Third-Place match Super Eagles’ chance to get consolation – Iwobi

Super Eagles winger Alex Iwobi says the side will turn their disappointment of losing AFCON 2019 semifinal to the Desert Foxes of Algeria into motivation to pip Tunisia in Wednesday’s Third-Place encounter at the Al Salam Stadium, Cairo.

The Super Eagles have a chance to take something home from the competition when they take on Alain Giresse’s men.

“We still have one more game to play. We would like to end the competition on a high. We would like to go out with a win, “Iwobi told a news conference in Cairo on Tuesday.

“It hurts a lot to lose in the semifinal. We have a chance to put things right in the third placed game. Hopefully, we can use our anger to try and win the game.”
