Former Super Eagles captain, Nwankwo Kanu has backed the Nigerian team to bounce back from Sunday’s shocking 2-0 loss to Madagascar and perform better at the ongoing Nations cup
The three-time African champions were the overwhelming favourites to beat the debutants but were second best for most part of the encounter.
It was the first time Madagascar will record a win against Nigeria in five attempts.
The defeat also ended the Super Eagles’ run of nine games without defeat at the Africa Cup of Nations.
