Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) technical director, Augustine Eguavoen, has made it clear that the Super Eagles cannot afford to lose when they face Bafana Bafana of South Africa in their next World Cup qualifier.

The Super Eagles boosted their campaign with a 1-0 victory over Rwanda’s Amavubi in Uyo last Saturday, but they remain six points behind South Africa in Group C. A win in Bloemfontein would cut that gap to just three points and keep Nigeria firmly in the race for a spot at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Eguavoen admitted that while South Africa are a strong side deserving of respect, Nigeria’s only target is victory. “This is a massive game. We really have no choice, Nigeria has no choice. We respect South Africa, but we are going for the three points, simple as that,” he told FARPost.

Rio Ferdinand has reacted to talks surrounding Xabi Alonso and the managerial position at Real Madrid.

It was reported that Xabi Alonso had signed a contract with the club to become their manager.

Ferdinand then shared his thoughts on the move “I’m genuinely surprised he’s taken that position. I’m not suggesting he’s the wrong choice.

“The reason I’m taken aback by his decision is that I thought he would have been patient enough to see how the Arne Slot situation at Liverpool would unfold.”
