Moses Simon, a key player for the Super Eagles at AFCON 2023, remains grounded as the team prepares for the upcoming game against Angola. 

The three-time champions are set to face the Palancas Negras in the quarter-final fixture of the ongoing Africa Cup of Nations on Friday.

“It is going to be a difficult game, like the ones against Cote d’Ivoire and Cameroon, and even Equatorial Guinea. 

"We must be at our best and focus on the prize,” Simon was quoted by thenff.com."

Jose Peseiro's men will aim to continue their impressive run in Cote d'Ivoire but Angola have shown they are no pushovers as evidenced by their 3-0 win over Namibia in the Round of 16.
