Super Eagles defender Kenneth Omeruo has said Sunday\u2019s Africa Cup of Nations final against Ivory Coast will be a difficult game.<\/p>\n

Nigeria will take on the hosts at the Alassane Ouattara Stadium, Ebimpe, Abidjan.<\/p>\n

The game will be a repeat of the group stage fixture between both countries which the Eagles won 1-0.<\/p>\n

Omeruo believes the final will be difficult, but feels they will do their best to come out with a win.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe all know how important this game is for our country, for them too (Cote d\u2019Ivoire) it is very important.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe beat them in the group stage and they will definitely want a revenge this time around.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe crowd will be hostile and will be solidly behind them, but we have the experience to deal with that.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s going to be tough out there, but we will do our best to come out victorious,\u201d Omeruo told reporters at training on Thursday.<\/p>\n
