World Cup qualification campaign is back on track following a 2-0 win over Rwanda on matchday five with Victor Osimhen scoring a brace. The Super Eagles were under serious pressure to claim all three points in Kigali on Friday afternoon as they arrived at the Stade Amahoro sitting fifth in Group C - five points off the automatic qualification spot - after failing to win any of their first four games.

After four rounds, the Super Eagles are fifth in their group with three points, while Rwanda has seven points and is just one point behind leader Benin.

Eric Chelle has announced his first Super Eagles starting 11 ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier match against Rwanda at the Amahoro Stadium.
