AFCON: Super Eagles will face a different Cote d’Ivoire team – Haller

Cote d’Ivoire forward, Sebastien Haller has said the Super Eagles will face a different Elephants side on Sunday.

The two teams will clash in the final of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, AFCON, at the Alassanne Quattara Stadium, Ebimpe, Abidjan.

Nigeria defeated the hosts 1-0 earlier in the competition.

Centre-back William Troost-Ekong scored the decisive goal from the spot in the second half.

Haller is however upbeat they can beat the Super Eagles this time around.

“It’s an advantage to both Nigeria and Côte d’Ivoire because we faced each other in the group stage so we know each other well,” the striker said at a press conference on Saturday.

“However, the approach to a knock-out game will be different from a group stage game.”
