2019 AFCON: Arsenal star speaks on favourite team to win trophy in Egypt

Iwobi said that Nigeria’s preparation for the game against Algeria on Sunday has not been affected by the fact that many view the Super Eagles as favourites for the title.“Normally you have to ignore and not pay attention to it,” Iwobi said in his interview with BBC Sport. “Even though we were able to win two games in the group stage, it wasn’t the greatest performance but sometimes you know you don’t have to play well to win games.
