Peseiro: Super Eagles Must Aim Higher Than AFCON Bronze
Former Super Eagles coach José Peseiro has dismissed Nigeria’s third-place finish at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations. He insists that reaching the 2023 final remains the team’s standout achievement. Speaking from Portugal, Peseiro argued that Nigeria’s status as a football powerhouse brings high expectations. He said the Super Eagles should be targeting finals rather than settling for third place. Under current coach Eric Chelle, Nigeria earned bronze with an attacking style that earned praise. But Peseiro believes the side must build on their 2023 final appearance to achieve even greater success.
