TITLE favourites Nigeria meet surprise packets Senegal on Monday in what appears the most one-sided quarter-final of the African Nations Cup. While the Super Eagles line-up could be mistaken for the African All Stars, the Lions do not possess one footballer who would be immediately recognisable outside the West African country. “We are the best team in Africa,” boasts Nigeria captain Mutiu Adepoju, who led the co-hosts to an impressive 2-0 victory over Morocco last week. “Our performance against the Moroccans proved we are the best squad on the continent and while Senegal are worthy of respect, I cannot see them stopping us.”
