Sao Tome and Principe assistant coach, William Barbosa has tipped Nigeria’s Super Eagles to win 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.
The True Patriots were mauled 6-0 by the Super Eagles in their final qualifying fixture at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, Uyo on Sunday evening.
Nigeria have already secured their place at the 2023 AFCON finals before the game against Sa Tome.
Jose Peseiro‘s team will head into the competition as one of the favourites.
Barbosa believed the three-time African champions can emerge the continent’s best in Cote d’Ivoire.
“Nigeria have some of the best players in Africa, quality players in top leagues around the world,” he told at the post-match press conference.
“For now, after Senegal, Nigeria have the best team in Africa.”
