Nigeria have all it takes to win the Afcon – Odion Ighalo

Nigeria forward Odion Ighalo believes that they can go all the way to the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) final and win the title for the fourth time.

The biennial tournament is set to commence in Egypt on Friday and the Super Eagles will kick-off their Group B campaign a day later against Burundi at the Alexandria Stadium.

Ighalo was the top scorer during the qualification round for the this year's Afcon with seven goals and he remains confident that Nigeria have the quality to conquer the rest of the continent in a 'tough' tournament.
