Heartbreak for the Eagles! It’s official: FIFA has cleared DR Congo for the Intercontinental Play-offs, and Nigeria is out.
All of us hoped the NFF’s protest about these “ineligible” gamers would give us a second likelihood, however FIFA has moved on. It’s a bitter tablet to swallow, particularly with a squad as gifted as ours.
No World Cup in 2026 means we have now to attend even longer to see our boys on the world stage. Whereas DR Congo heads to Mexico to combat for a spot, we’re left with friendlies in opposition to Jordan and Iran.
It’s time to cease wanting on the boardroom and begin fixing issues on the pitch. We’ll be again, however for now, the dream is over. 🇳🇬💔 #SuperEagles #WorldCup2026 #NFF
