The Super Eagles suffered a setback with a 2-0 defeat to Mali in a recent friendly match, but defender Kenneth Omeruo remains optimistic about Nigeria’s prospects in the upcoming World Cup qualifiers. Omeruo, who captained the team in the match against Mali, admitted that missed opportunities cost them the game but emphasized the need to capitalize on chances in football.
Looking ahead to the crucial qualifiers against South Africa and Benin Republic in June, Omeruo highlighted the team’s determination to secure victories. He stressed the significance of these matches, especially for players who aspire to participate in their first World Cup, urging the team not to disappoint themselves and the nation.
The defeat to Mali followed Nigeria’s morale-boosting victory over Ghana, indicating a mix of results for the Super Eagles. Despite their skilful passing game, Nigeria struggled to find the back of the net against Mali, leading some analysts to suggest that the absence of a natural goal scorer may have hindered their offensive efforts.
The upcoming World Cup qualifiers against South Africa and Benin Republic will be crucial for Nigeria’s campaign. Scheduled within the international window of 3-11 June, these matches present an opportunity for the Super Eagles to bounce back from the defeat to Mali and strengthen their position in the qualification race.
