Super Eagles captain, William Troost-Ekong says the team is fully prepared for its 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Rwanda on Friday March 21.
Despite past struggles to secure an away victory against the Amavubis, Troost-Ekong insists that the team is focused on the present challenge.
“We read about that in some places but we are not bothered. I was part of the last game in Kigali which ended scoreless, but we know that we cannot afford a draw this time,” the skipper told thenff.com.
He emphasized the team’s unwavering objective. “Our objective is to pick the three points and bring some life back into our campaign,” Troost-Ekong stated.
“We are certainly not concerned about history books and what has happened before now. Qualification for the FIFA World Cup is our priority.”
The Super Eagles have to win both games to keep their hopes of making it to that tournament in the United States of America, Canada and Mexico alive.
