Benin Republic goalkeeper Allagbe Saturnin says the Super Eagles must be prepared for a tough battle when both teams clash this month in a 2021 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying match, reports Completesports.com.
The Squirrels will host their neighbours at the Stade Charles de Gaulle on Saturday, March 27.
The Super Eagles defeated Michel Dussuyer’s side 2-1 on matchday one at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, Uyo.

Allagbe insists they will go all out for a win against the three-time African champions.
“We have our goal. It is to qualify us. Nigeria are the favorites but we are going to push them around as much as possible,” the Dijon of France goalkeeper told ojbsport.com.
Nigeria top Group L with eight points from four games, while Benin sit in second position with seven points from the same number of matches.

Mr man am very sorry for u because u will not be able to raise your head after that game against the super eagles,you have just made the mistake of your life by boasting
The more dey boast the more eagles will get serious. It would have been better to catch eagle unaware. And get a win for ur country which is equal to the smallest state here.
If say small teams wet we suppose beat well say we beat them well,em for no get mouth dey yarn this ..well na em mouth.. Meanwhile I hear say Benin no dey lose for that their home. .
Though we (SE) are down, but i want to tell u that we’re not out…
U can join our enemy(within/without) and mock at us, after all we’re in a free world…. U have freedom of speech…
But consider this: “The downfall of a man isn’t the end of his life”.
GK ALLAGBE or what ever u may call your self-acclaimed humble yourself, u come up with this hard words bcos of the Benin wonders that would never seize to go down the history book of nigeria that S/L came from 4 goals down to earn a vital point against SE in Benin city.
Remember everyday is not christmas as normally said in our local dilect….
I don’t have much enticing words to say but;
THE END SHALL TELL…. GOODBYE FOR NOW….
