We don't have to think about Egypt, says Nigeria skipper Musa
Published in Ahram Online on 08 - 09 - 2015

Nigeria's forward Ahmed Musa said on Tuesday that his side is not unfazed by Egypt's 5-1 away win over Chad in the African Cup of Nations qualifiers on Sunday, saying the Super Eagles only have to focus on their own run.
Egypt and Nigeria are likely to vie for the qualifying Group G top place, with Chad and Tanzania unlikely to provide genuine challenge to the fancied duo.
Tanzania surprised 2013 African champions Nigeria after holding them to goalless draw on Saturday, opening the door for the Pharaohs to top the group with six points, two ahead of second-placed Nigeria.
"We have to focus on ourselves and not what our group opponents do,'' CSKA Moscow forward Musa told Supersport.com on Tuesday.
"We followed Egypt's game against Chad but we are not under any pressure. We don't have to think about Egypt but concentrate on ourselves."
The 22-year-old said Nigeria's two games against Egypt will be decisive to determine the group's winner.
"We are only thinking about the two games we will play against them both at home and away," he added
"We have the quality and we believe in our coaches. Hopefully, we can do it and make our country proud."
Nigeria failed to reach the last edition of the Africa Cup of Nations while Egypt have missed out on the tournament since winning the last of their record seven titles in 2010.
