Super Eagles Coach Eric Chelle to Attend AFCON 2025 Draw
Super Eagles head coach, Eric Chelle, is set to attend the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations draw, which will take place at the Mohammed V National Theatre in Rabat on Monday.
The Confederation of African Football (CAF) is expected to release the official draw procedure over the weekend as anticipation builds for the tournament.
Nigeria, three-time AFCON champions, will enter the draw as one of the top seeds, thanks to their strong performance and ranking.
The Super Eagles are currently among Africa’s top six teams in the FIFA rankings, a testament to their consistency and talent.
Their impressive run at the AFCON 2023 finals in Côte d’Ivoire, where they finished as runners-up, further solidifies their position as strong contenders for the 2025 edition.
The 2026 FIFA World Cup may have come to an end, but fans are still talking about its historic entertainment lineup.
From the opening ceremony to the first-ever FIFA World Cup halftime show and the closing ceremony, the tournament featured performances from some of the biggest artists in the world.
Some of the performers included:
- Madonna
- BTS
- Shakira
- Burna Boy
- Justin Bieber
- Chris Martin (Coldplay)
- Jennifer Hudson
- Robbie Williams
- Nicole Scherzinger
- Laura Pausini
- Post Malone
- PS22 Chorus

Football legend Thierry Henry has reacted to Lionel Messi’s emotional response after Argentina lost the 2026 FIFA World Cup final to Spain.
It can be recalled that Spain defeated Argentina to lift the 2026 World Cup trophy. While Spain celebrated their victory, cameras captured Messi in tears after the final whistle.
Henry said Messi’s reaction showed just how much the game still means to him.
“Look at what it means to him. If you ever had any doubt about whether the guy still has any fire in his belly, look at him. Look at what it means.”
He added “You won already. And look at the guy. Look at the passion, desire and the love that he has for his country and how much he puts into it.”
Football legend Rio Ferdinand has shared his prediction ahead of the FIFA World Cup final between Spain and Argentina.
While many have backed different teams to lift the trophy, Ferdinand said some fans have underestimated Argentina’s quality.
He said “I find it difficult to bet against Argentina. They have demonstrated remarkable character, determination, and resilience. I believe people have been somewhat disrespectful by calling them an average team; they are not.”
He continued “I think it is inappropriate and disrespectful. If you are saying that, you clearly do not watch enough football, as they are an excellent team, and in challenging situations, they become even better and stronger. However, I do believe Spain will win the match.”
