While acknowledging that they woiuld also need the best of skills and tactics to carry the day at Godswill Akpabio international Stadium, footballlive.ng report that the former Arsenal youth team player also reiterated that he and his colleagues are determined to win.
Ajayi stressed that the Eagles are ready to make Nigerians proud against The Mediterranean Knights of Libya in their third and fourth Group E games of the AFCON 2019 qualifiers.

Ajayi said: “We know the importance of these two matches and we are determined to do all we can to secure maximum points to give ourselves the best chance of qualification and make our country proud.
“We ask for the continued support from our fans as their support can make all the difference.”
