Nigeria’s Super Eagles finished their 2025 Nations Cup qualifiers on a disappointing note by losing to Rwanda 2-1 at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium on Monday.
In front of about 10,000 spectators, the Eagles huffed and puffed but could not blow down the Rwandan house.
The defeat brings into perspective the calculations for the 2026 World Cup qualifiers that resume in March 2025 with Rwanda and Benin in the same group and the Eagles needing to win all their remaining six matches to stand a chance of not missing successive World Cups.
