Brighton and Hove Albion's Zadok Yohanna has expressed faith in Nigeria's Olympic Eagles to overcome their 2-0 first-leg deficit against DR Congo in the CAF U23 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier, despite the fact that he is expected to miss the return leg due to injury. The 2-0 loss in Lubumbashi marked Yohanna's first appearance for Nigeria's U-23 team and his international debut.
He was injured in the first half and had to be substituted. Yohanna stated, "Of course, with the quality the players have, I am really sure that they would win." The return match will be held at the Remo Stars Stadium in Ikenne on Tuesday, November 17. Yohanna did not attend the team's recovery session on Saturday and is set to travel to England on Saturday night for further medical evaluation, which will conclude his involvement with the Olympic Eagles.
