Finidi George: Super Eagles focused on crucial World Cup Qualifier against South Africa
Super Eagles head coach Finidi George has emphasized that his team is fully focused on their next 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying fixture against South Africa. Nigeriasoccernet.com reports.
The three-time African champions are yet to secure a win in the qualifiers, having drawn their opening two matches against Lesotho and Zimbabwe.
The West Africans face a must-win situation against Hugo Broos’ side to revive their qualification hopes.
Acknowledging the challenge ahead, Finidi remains confident in his team's ability to overcome it. "We know Nigerians would love the team to win all the time, and we’ll just get the players focused on the game, one game at a time. We focus on the South African game and see how we can win that one before we talk about the Benin Republic game," Finidi said in an interview with Eagle FM as reported
“One cannot be scared in life. Going through life is difficult, you walk through it with the difficulties that you know you’ll encounter. So that’s how I look at life and approach it that way, and football will not be any different. We will do our job and make sure we get the best out of that game, and apart from that, nothing else.”
