According to Brila.net, Ekong played the entire duration of the game as the Super Eagles played a 4 – 4 draw with the Leone Stars in the first meeting on Friday.
The three-time African champions allowed a four-goal lead slip away from them, at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium in Benin City, but Ekong said the shocking result has left the team hungrier ahead of the reversed fixture.
“It is our Naija spirit to overcome and succeed. Hungry and ready for redemption Tuesday!", he posted on twitter.
