The Super Eagles of Nigeria are gearing up for an exciting journey as they commence their quest for the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualification.
Their opening match against Lesotho promises to be a pivotal moment in this campaign.
The Super Eagles, led by coach Jose Peseiro, enter this qualifying campaign with soaring spirits following their remarkable 6-0 victory over Sao Tome in the final game of the 2023 African Cup of Nations qualifiers. This dominant performance showcased their potential and instilled confidence in the team. The Super Eagles will aim to carry this momentum into the upcoming clash with Lesotho.
On the flip side, Lesotho approaches the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier with a sense of urgency. Their recent 1-0 loss to Ivory Coast in the African Cup of Nations qualifier was undoubtedly disappointing. However, they now have an opportunity for redemption as they face the Super Eagles. Lesotho will be determined to bounce back with a strong performance and secure a victory.
Match Date and Kickoff Time
The eagerly anticipated showdown between Nigeria and Lesotho is scheduled for Monday, November 13, at the prestigious Godswill Akpabio Stadium in Uyo. Football enthusiasts can mark their calendars, as the game is set to kick off at precisely 5 PM Nigerian time.
