FootballDuring an exclusive interview with Sports Brief, Super Eagles goalkeeper Olorunleke Ojo shared his thoughts about Ivory Coast thrashing against the National Thunder.
"For me, in a game of football, things like this happen; that's why even before I came, I was having a conversation with one of my colleagues that this Nations Cup is going to be tough, as there's no underdog in Africa," he said.
