The Super Eagles of Nigeria have received a significant boost in their quest to qualify for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Reports indicate that South Africa has accepted a 3-point deduction imposed by FIFA due to fielding an ineligible player. This development propels Nigeria up the Group C standings, enhancing their chances of securing a spot in the tournament.

With this advantage, Nigeria’s path to qualification becomes more attainable. The team is expected to capitalize on this opportunity in their upcoming matches, aiming to solidify their position and ensure participation in the prestigious global event.
