In an interview with Africanfootball.com, the Lazio midfielder said, “We will make it to AFCON 2017 by the grace of God. This time, it’s going to be a different ball game. It’s unfortu nate that we are always in situations like this when we want to qualify for major competitions like the Nations Cup and World Cup.” He, however, remains optimistic, particularly against the Pharaohs of Egypt. He said, “There are no unbeatable teams in the world. We can actually beat them. They are coming to our home first and victory in the match is very important for us. We have to do all we can to beat them and go top of the group because that’s the surest way we can qualify.”
