Nigeria captain John Mikel Obi has said that the Super Eagles is up for the 2019 Africa Cup Of Nations which will hold in Egypt, later this month, ASB News reports. Mikel returned to the team ahead of the AFCON after being absent from international scene since after the World Cup in Russia. The former Chelsea star who had a short spell with English Championship side, Middlesbrough, said he is now ready to lead the Nigeria team again. Speaking after a training session in Asaba, where the team is currently camped in Nigeria, said that he is happy with the progress the team has made so far, he also said that he fitted in seamlessly after many months of absence. “I’m really happy to be back in the team and I’m happy with the progress made so far. I fitted in seamlessly because it was not a problem for me as I have great understanding of the team and the coach very well. "I needed rest because I was struggling with injuries but now I’m ready to lead the team again. The best team will win the AFCON and we are up for it as we are training twice a day.” Meanwhile, 18-man squad of the Zimbabwe's national team have arrived in Nigeria for Saturday's international friendly game against the Super Eagles in Asaba. The match would kick-off 5pm, Nigeria time. Source: https://www.asbnews.ng/2019/06/07/the-best-team-will-win-the-afcon-and-we-are-up-for-it-says-mikel/

It's HIGH time we win this Afcon, although we have been crowned champions thrice in 1980, 1994, 2013 respectively, we really have underachieved... Losing finalist in 84, 88, 90, 2000 3rd place - 76, 78, 92, 02, 04, 06, 2010 We won in 94' , and could have won a hatrick with arguably one of our best Teams and era's, We were really in the best shape of our lives with the 94' team, no 4 in the world and was very evident in our Gold medal at the 96' Olympics, but we withdrew the 96' tourney, and was subsequently banned in 1998, when we came back in the year 2000 we came 2nd'... Now we have a really good set of players, alot of promising prospects coming up and a very competitive u23 team....A lot of our boys are doing well at the moments, chukwueze, onyekuru, osihmen, omeruo, Ndidi .... Nigerians me thinks it's time... 1 Like 1 Share |

Ehnn ?? Since those players struggled to make it through the qualifications, you didn’t show up.. Now it’s rosy & set, you’re here to claim the Captaincy band and maintain your status quo. Oga carry that Band give Musa and bye bye from the national team. 2 Likes |
