Former FIFA and CAF technical instructor Adeboye Onigbinde says he’s still hopeful that the Super Eagles will qualify for the 2026/World Cup despite the team’s 1-1 draw against Zimbabwe at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium in Uyo.
Victor Osimhen scored in the 74th minute before Zimbabwe pegged Nigeria back in the 90th minute.
With the draw, Nigeria are still rooted in fourth place with seven points from six games.

Speaking with Completesports.com, Onigbinde stated that he’s hoping for the best for the Super Eagles
“I am a Nigerian and I am still hoping for the best regardless of the result against Zimbabwe.
“The man in charge has every reason for what he does and I was not there. So there are a lot of things I can just say at the moment.
“Football is a game of 11 players aside, so what is going to happen will depend on what the players bring to the game against Rwanda in their next match.”

What ever happens to the Super eagles, blame NFF. . . they’re the culprit…..
Sacking a coach that use to qualify us for tournament at ease (rohr) and bringing a man that left us at the middle of the Sea (peseiro)….
Is this not the same Hugo broose that rohr humbled during 2018 fifa world cup qualifiers when he was coach of Cameroon????
See the way he’s doing it with mediocre south Africa because there’s no coach to challenge him in that group.
