The Super Eagles have returned to the country following a disappointing performance against the Benin Republic in Abidjan.
Finidi George’s side on Monday suffered a 2-1 defeat to Benin Republic on matchday four of the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.
It was a very tough June International window for the Super Eagles, who managed to secure only one point out of a possible six.
In a brief statement released on the team’s social media account, the players expressed their regret over the disappointing result and pledged to continue fighting for World Cup qualification.
“We are back in the country and we are not happy about the way the two games panned out. We have had talks among ourselves and have resolved to fight hard till the end to ensure we do the impossible, which is qualifying for the 2026 World Cup. We don’t take your support for granted; we thank you immensely,” the statement read.
The Super Eagles are currently fifth in their group, with just three points from a possible twelve.
