Nantes and Nigeria winger Moses Simon has expressed optimism that the Super Eagles have the quality needed to secure a spot in the 2026 FIFA World Cup, despite their challenging position in the qualifiers.

With four games played and no victories yet, Nigeria sits in fifth place in their group, holding just three points. However, Simon remains confident in the team’s abilities.

“We have the quality, we have what it takes to win,” the 29-year-old told BBC Sport Africa. “We don’t believe that we are not going to the World Cup.”

He also mentioned the impact of missing key players in recent matches and believes their return next year will boost the team’s chances.

“Three years ago, we lost the Derby at Old Trafford with a goal that had to be disallowed. No one apologised. We are still waiting for the apology, Sometimes it happens for you, sometimes against you. It’s football.”

The comments came after Manchester City’s 1–0 win over Manchester United, in which Erling Haaland’s goal was initially ruled offside before VAR overturned the decision. The refereeing body later acknowledged that the decision was incorrect.
