Former Nigerian international, John Utaka has urged Super Eagles players to maintain their determination and positive mindset in the remaining games to qualify for 2026 World Cup.
Bafana Bafana of South Africa lead group C with 13 points, while Nigeria have just 7 points, a point behind Rwanda and Benin who have 8 points each.

He said: “With the kind of talent we have, we shouldn’t be in this position. We need to come together and stay focused on achieving our World Cup dream. We must be determined like other countries.
“In football, anything can happen. We shouldn’t give up. I still believe we can qualify, but it all depends on how we approach the games ahead.”
Nigeria will host Rwanda at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo on 3rd September, before travelling to face South Africa three days later.
