Eagles Must Be Deadly In Attack Against Rwanda

Speaking with Completesports.com, Lawal stated that the Super Eagles possess an attacking threat more than Rwanda, while also calling on the team to capitalize on every goal-scoring opportunit

“This is a game the Super Eagles must win to keep their 2026 World Cup dreams alive.

“Yes, Rwanda playing at home will be eager to show their strength, but then, Nigeria’s biggest strength is the attack, where we have the likes of Osimhen, Arokodare, Boniface, Lookman, and others.

“Nigeria must attack Rwanda and not allow Rwanda to push them under undue pressure. Eagles, for sure, will come out victorious.”
