Aina Anticipates A Mouth-Watering Clash Against Tunisia

Determined to emerge as the eventual winner of the 2021 African Cup of Nations, Super Eagles, and  Torino FC defender, Ola Aina thinks Sunday's clash against Tunisia won't be a stroll in the Park for Nigeria.

While the former Chelsea star is confident of Nigeria's ability to come out tops, Aina envisages a tough tie against their North African opponents. Aina stated that he expects The Carthage Eagles to come out smoking against Super Eagles given their pedigree in African football.

The former Fulham loanee stressed that his Super Eagles' teammates won't be fooled by Tunisia's poor group records to treat their opponents with kid gloves knowing full well that the North Africans are known to raise their game against big opponents.

" Yeah, I expect a tough clash but we will be ready to face any team in this tournament. There is no escape route to winning the trophy so we are not expecting an easy ride in this tournament at all.

" Of course, our opponents will surely raise their game and play better against big opponents like Nigeria. We are not going to see them as best losers but a big team that must be taken seriously," he said
