We are in Cairo to win – Rohr

Three-time champions Nigeria arrived in the Egyptian capital, Cairo, ahead of Wednesday’s potentially-explosive AFCON 2019 quarter-final clash against 1996 champions South Africa at the Cairo International Stadium, with coachGernot Rohr brimming with confidence.
Conquerors of Cup holders Cameroon in the Round of 16 in a game played in Alexandria on Saturday, the Super Eagles had a recovery training and then generally retired to their Helnan Palestine Hotel in Alexandria to relax for the day.
Rohr, not one to forget sharp pains inflicted by lower-ranked teams, after losing to BafanaBafana 2-0 in Uyo during the qualifiers, his first loss in charge of the continental giants, stated that they were in Cairo to win.
“We are here (Cairo) to win. It is not going to be an easy match, but surely if you have to win the Africa Cup, you will not expect to be faced with easy matches at this stage. We know ourselves from the qualifying campaign and it will be no holds-barred on Wednesday. It is not a matter of revenge; it is about reaching the semi-finals,” he said.
