Coach Gernot Rohr has revealed that the Super Eagles is hoping to secure six points in the double-header with Sierra Leone.
The Super Eagles topping Group L with six points from two games after wins against Benin Republic and Lesotho.
Nigeria will play their game of the campaign at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium on Friday afternoon against Sierra Leone, and Rohr said the team is ready for the challenge.
“We have our focus & objective for the matches,” the Manager said.
“We want to win both games, so we can have the ticket and be more relaxed for the final games. You know next year, we also have the World Cup qualifiers to focus on. It is better to get the AFCON job behind us now.”
The former Gabon and Niger Republic coach added that he is happy with the spirit showed by the Players in camp.
“I am excited by the spirit of the players and their sense of dedication and commitment. We have not played a competitive match in a year, but they look very ready and good to go.
“Our mission is the six points in these two matches,” He concluded.
