Super Eagles captain William Troost-Ekong hailed Nigeria’s 4-0 victory over Benin Republic as a true testament to belief and resilience, securing the team’s spot in the African playoffs for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
“I’m proud to be part of this team, part of this family,” Troost-Ekong said, praising coach Eric Chelle and forward Victor Osimhen for their standout performances. He reminded fans to support the players not just as athletes but as individuals, and acknowledged the tough journey to qualification.
Looking ahead to the playoffs in Morocco, he said, “We have an exceptional group and a big job ahead. We’ll take it one game at a time, and I believe we’re going to make it.”
After missing the 2022 World Cup, Nigeria’s dominant win sends a clear message: the Super Eagles are ready for a strong comeback.
