Benin Defender Mohamed Tijani Out for Nigeria Clash
Benin Republic’s Cheetahs will be missing key defender Mohamed Tijani for their 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Nigeria due to an ankle sprain sustained during training. Reports from the Cheetahs camp confirm that Tijani will not participate in the match, but the medical team is working to have him fit for their next game against Libya on Tuesday.

Zlatan Ibrahimović Names African Team to Watch at FIFA World Cup
Former footballer Zlatan Ibrahimović speaks on the FIFA World Cup and states which African team countries should watch out for.
During a recent interview, the former player shared that Ivory Coast should be one of the teams to look out for.
“They can be dangerous. It is a very good team. They lost against Germany, but that game could have been a draw or even a win.
