The 2013 African Cup of Nations has set the stage for an unexpected final showdown between Nigeria, aiming for a third title, and Burkina Faso, a team relatively new to this level of competition.
In the anticipated final at the National Stadium in Johannesburg on Sunday, February 10, the Super Eagles have the opportunity to succeed the Zambian national team as champions. Stephen Keshi, who was a winner as a player in 1994, could potentially make history by becoming the second coach ever to be crowned both as a player and coach in the history of the CAN.
For Nigeria to secure the trophy for the third time, they will undoubtedly rely on the support of their passionate fanbase. The backing of their supporters can play a crucial role in boosting the team’s morale and performance as they aim for victory in this unexpected yet highly anticipated final.
