Former Super Eagles captain, William Troost-Ekong has lauded the team’s performance in the win over Algeria.

The three-time champions breezed into the semi-finals following a dominant 2-0 victory over the Desert Foxes on Saturday.

Nigeria totally outplayed Vladimir Petković’s side in the game maintaining their unbeaten streak in the competition.


They have also kept clean sheet in their last two games.

Troost-Ekong, who announced his retirement from international football on the eve of the competition, is rooting for the Super Eagles to win the title.


“Top performance from the whole team! Best I’ve seen the boys play and growing game by game. Still my favourites to win,” he said.
