Acknowledging Nigeria as a formidable opponent, Haller emphasized the motivation within the Ivorian team to claim victory in front of their home crowd.

He stated, “We are playing the AFCON final against Nigeria. It is a great nation. It is heavy. They beat us in the group stage. But we are already motivated to go and lift the trophy on Sunday in this stadium in front of the Ivorian people. We have revenge to take on Nigeria.”

Ivory Coast will aim to capitalize on their home advantage and deliver a performance that secures their redemption against Nigeria.
