Beating Ghana again will be tough, says Salisu

Super Eagles assistant coach, Salisu Yusuf, has said it would be difficult to beat hosts Ghana for the second time in the final of the 2017 West African Football Union Cup of Nations on Sunday.

Nigeria and Ghana had met earlier in the group stage of the competition with the Eagles beating the Black Stars 2-0. The Ghanaians topped the group while the Nigerians finished second in the group.

The Eagles beat Benin Republic 1-0 in the semifinal while Ghana defeated Niger Republic 2-0 to book a place in the final.

Benin and Niger will battle for the bronze of the sub-regional competition.
