Super Eagles winger Moses Simon has warned that Nigeria will approach Saturday’s Unity Cup final against Jamaica with full competitive intent, dismissing any notion that the clash is merely a friendly.
Recall Nigeria secured their place in the final with a 2-1 win over Ghana, while Jamaica booked their ticket by defeating Trinidad and Tobago 3-2.
Speaking at a press conference ahead of the final, Simon stressed the importance of representing Nigeria with seriousness, regardless of the competition.
“I feel good. It’s my first time playing in a tournament like this in the UK, and of course, we are prepared,” said Simon.
“We know what it takes. There’s no such thing as a friendly game when you’re playing for Nigeria.”
Meanwhile, the match is scheduled for Saturday at the Gtech Community Stadium in Brentford, with kickoff set for 5 pm Nigeria time.
