In an interview with Completesports, Tijani stated that the disappointment of not qualifying for Qatar will spur the team to glory, starting with the qualifying campaigns.

“It’s a big disappointment that the Super Eagles failed to make an appreciable impact at the 2021 AFCON in Cameroon and also failing to qualify for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar,” the former Atlanta Olympic gold medalist told Completesports.com.

“However, I am optimistic that such disappointment will only spur the Super Eagles to be more hungry for success. The players will be more determined to make a big statement of intent.”
