“We will do better next time” – Captain Ahmed Musa

Nigerian professional footballer who plays as a forward and left winger for Turkish Süper Lig club Fatih Karagümrük and the captain of the Super Eagles of Nigeria national team Ahmed Musa professionally known as Musa react over their AFCON exit.

The Saudi Arabia-based winger, via his Twitter, handle @Ahmedmusa718, made this appeal shortly after he returned to the country on Tuesday.

Musa, who only came in as a second-half substitute once in all four games the Super Eagles played in Cameroon, wrote: “In life, things wouldn’t always go the way we want them to and that’s something we have to accept however hard it is.

“We gave our 100% & unfortunately that wasn’t good enough to take us through. We won’t give up; we will do better next time. Thanks for all your support and prayers.”

The former Africa champions will aim at redeeming her image when they battle Black Stars of Ghana for the 2022 FIFA World Cup ticket in the playoffs in March.
