Super Eagles defender Kenneth Omeruo says unity within the ranks propelled the team to a successful outing at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.

The West Africans made it to the final of the competition where they lost 2-1 to host nation Cote d’Ivoire.

The three-time African champions struggled in the build up to the competition and were not expected to make a big impression in Cote d’Ivoire.

Omeruo claimed the determination and camaraderie among the players made it possible for them to exceed expectations in the competition.

“I am especially proud of Stanley Nwabali, how he was able to come into the team and show his qualities,” Omeruo told Arise TV.

“The team believes in itself, and knows it can perform better. I hoped that we would win gold at the 2023 AFCON, nonetheless, our eyes are on AFCON 2025.”
