“Musa told us how they won the 2013 AFCON. He’s creating the same environment and everyone is hungry. He always wants us to push on and achieve that same thing,” Iwobi said.
“Musa told us that they don’t look at the outside noise. We want to do it again. We will start with the quarter-final and give our hundred per cent.”
