Super Eagles coach, Jose Peseiro, has said that his team want to beat South Africa in 90 minutes, 120 minutes or penalties when both teams clash in the semi-final of the ongoing 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, AFCON, on Wednesday.
Peseiro said this while insisting that he is not thinking about South Africa’s penalty-saving specialist Ronwen Williams ahead of the AFCON clash.
Recall that Williams etched his name into the history books as the first goalkeeper to ever save four penalties in a single AFCON shootout as Hugo Bross’ side defeated Cape Verde in the last-8 to set up a semifinal meeting with the Super Eagles.
When asked about if he is thinking about the Mamelodi Sundowns shot-stopper, Peseiro told Hot Sports: “No. I think about the opponent. We observe the opponent, we want to beat them in the 90 minutes, 120 minutes or penalties.
“We have to prepare the team well to be focused and show a good mentality. Our players deserve to reach the final but we need to beat South Africa in a hard match.”
