Nigeria’s Super Eagles are gearing up for a crucial World Cup qualifying clash against the Warriors of Zimbabwe, with star striker Victor Osimhen declaring that the team is fully prepared for battle.
Osimhen, who scored both goals in Nigeria’s 2-0 victory over Rwanda on Friday, emphasized the importance of the remaining qualifiers, describing them as “wars” that must be won at all costs.
“We are ready. The remaining matches are wars, and we must fight them with all that we have to win,” Osimhen told thenff.com.
The Super Eagles’ victory against Rwanda revived their chances of qualifying for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. With six points from five matches, Nigeria now sits in fourth place in Group C, making Tuesday’s match against Zimbabwe at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo a must-win encounter.
Osimhen’s determination reflects the team’s renewed focus as they push for a place in the expanded 48-team World Cup, set to take place in the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
