Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Super Falcons and Barcelona Ladies striker, Asisat Oshoala, has disagreed with Manchester City legend Yaya Toure\u2019s recent prediction regarding Nigeria\u2019s Super Eagles in the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) in Ivory Coast.<\/p>\n

Nigeria will compete in Group A at the 2023 AFCON in January alongside hosts nation Ivory Coast, Guinea-Bissau and Equatorial Guinea.<\/p>\n

However, Toure had backed his country Ivory Coast and Guinea-Bissau to make it past the group stage and reach the knockout stage of the competition.<\/p>\n

Speaking with Brila FM, Oshoala dismissed Toure\u2019s prediction, insisting that Nigeria have players like Victor Osimhen and Victor Boniface who can lead the team to glory in the tournament.<\/p>\n

\u201cTalk is cheap. When we get to the tournament, we will separate the boys from the men,\u201d Oshoala said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy not? We have the almighty Osimhen, the best player in Africa; we have Boniface doing well at club level. I feel like we have a good team; it\u2019s not about individual talent.\u201d<\/p>\n
