Nigeria Coach Scheil: "We'll Plan to Stop Morocco, Not Just Diaz"

Eric Scheil, coach of the Nigerian national team, affirmed that he does not wish to focus solely on stopping star Brahim Diaz. Instead, he will work on developing the necessary strategy to neutralize the threat posed by the entire Moroccan national team.

Speaking on Tuesday at the pre-match press conference against Morocco, Scheil stated: "A way to stop Diaz? We will devise a plan to stop the Moroccan national team. Diaz is a good player, and Morocco is a good team."

He added: "What concerns me today is my team. We will see if we have recovered after the match against Algeria, and based on that, I will work on devising the game plan for the upcoming match."

The Nigerian national team is set to face Morocco tomorrow, Wednesday, at 21:00 GMT+1, in the Africa Cup of Nations semi-final. The match will take place at Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium in Rabat.
