Super Eagles head coach Finidi George remains optimistic about the team’s prospects despite their recent defeat to Benin Republic.

Speaking at the post-match conference, Finidi emphasized that the team is still capable of winning games and urged supporters not to lose hope.

He acknowledged the need for improvements and promised to work on strategies to get the best out of his players.

“Yeah, it’s to win, but there’s no special formula for that,” Finidi admitted. “We have to see how the players will start the new season and see how we can get the best out of the players.”

“So everybody must be committed. I think with that commitment we’ll win games. I believe we’re going to win games.”

He continued, “And if we can win games, the battle will still be there. So we can’t throw in the towel, because we’ve had only three points. We have to find a way to get these players back.”

Recall that Nigeria failed to qualify for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar

With Nigeria fifth on the table – and could end up sixth if Zimbabwe wins their game in-hand, It looks like yet another disastrous World Cup qualifying campaign looming.
