Super Eagles striker Alex Iwobi, is hoping to play in another final at the Africa Cup of Nations after helping his club Arsenal to reach the final of the Europa League.

Arsenal lost to Chelsea in Baku, but Iwobi scored a memorable goal in the Gunners 4-1 loss.

He said he was still pained by the drubbing and winning the AFCON could be a compensation.

The winger who grew up in Arsenal’s academy as a kid and picks inspiration from his uncle Nigerian legend Jay Jay Okocha, believes the current Super Eagles squad has a good chance to make history by winning their fourth title.

Having won in 2013 under the late Stephen Keshi, Nigeria failed to qualify for the last two editions but have now returned with the hunger to ensure they get back to the king’s table of African football.
