Moses Simon Rallies Super Eagles Ahead of Rwanda Clash
Super Eagles winger Moses Simon has declared that Nigeria must go all out for victory when they face the Amavubi of Rwanda in their 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying matchday seven fixture, reports Nigeriasoccernet.com.
The Super Eagles, who have managed just one win in six qualifiers, will host Adel Amrouche’s side on Saturday at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, Uyo.
Simon, speaking to ESPN, stressed that only a win will be acceptable as the team continues its push for a World Cup ticket.
“We just have to win, there are no excuses. It doesn’t matter who scores, we don’t care, we just want to win,” Simon stated.
The three-time African champions currently trail Eric Chelle’s side by six points in Group C, with leaders South Africa’s Bafana Bafana firmly in control.
Simon challenged his teammates to give their all and even urged players to step up if they felt they could make a difference.
“If you know anything you can do to make us win, do it. If you feel you’re better than who the coach wants to put, it is easy – speak with the coach. If you feel that if you go into the pitch, you will score five goals, it is easy, just say it.
Everyone can stand up for you, we can speak with the coach that you have to play because now there is no time for excuses. We just need to give everything that we can. If it happens, it happens. If it doesn’t happen, let us know, ‘Yes, we gave our best.’”
