Former Nigerian international, Joseph Yobo says he’s not convinced with the Super Eagles’ victory over Guinea-Bissau in Monday’s 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.

Recall that Nigeria bot the break in the 37th minute as Opa Sangante smashed Moses Simon’s cross into his net while trying to stop Osimhen waiting behind him for a tap-in.

However, reacting after the game, Yobo, who was a guest at Afrosports AFCON Coverage, stated that he’s happy the Super Eagles won but that he’s not convinced with their performance.

“It was not a convincing victory even though we got the deserved result we needed. The team still need more cohesion because from the midfield, we are yet to get it right,” Yobo said.

“However, we have more attacking players than midfield players. But then, when Iwobi picks, I am sure the team will create more goal scoring chances.

“I think keeping a clean sheet is another positive result from today’s game and it shows the defence is doing something good.”
