Legit.ng earlier reported that Peseiro admitted that Ivory Coast were the better side in the 2023 AFCON final played in Abidjan.
Legit.ng reports that Sébastien Haller scored late to lead the host nation to a remarkable AFCON title with a 2-1 victory over Nigeria in the final on Sunday, February 11. Haller netted from close range in the 81st minute to complete the turnaround after Franck Kessié drew the Elephants level in the 62nd minute. It marked Ivory Coast's third title, with previous victories in 1992 and 2015, both secured through penalty shootouts.
Peseiro admitted in a post-match interview: “Ivory Coast were better than us today. “I am sad, my team is sad, but for me, they did the maximum, each one. Sometimes you want to do something but you cannot do it.”
