Super Eagles’ Samuel Kalu has affirmed they will be up against familiar foes on Wednesday when they face South Africa in the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) quarter-final in Cairo.
The Eagles were beaten 2-0 by Bafana Bafana in front of their own fans at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium, Uyo in June 2017 but they improved with a 1-1 draw in the return leg in Johannesburg last year.
In Afcon, the Eagles needed two second-half goals to nullify the Indomitable Lions’ 2-1 half-time lead. The Cameroon game has motivated the troops ahead of facing South Africa at Cairo International Stadium on Wednesday.
