Benjamin Fredrick ruled out of AFCON 2025

Super Eagles defender Benjamin Fredrick has been ruled out of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations after suffering a knee injury during a training session with his club. The setback is a major blow for Nigeria, as the youngster was one of the standout performers in the country’s unsuccessful bid to qualify for the 2026 World Cup.​ Fredrick, who is on the books of English club Brentford, is currently on loan at Belgian side Dender FC for the 2025–26 season to gain first-team experience. He has been a regular under Super Eagles coach Eric Chelle since making his debut against Jamaica at the Unity Cup earlier this year.​ Such has been his impact that he displaced team captain William Troost-Ekong from the starting lineup during the last round of World Cup qualifiers. The 20-year-old centre-back was widely expected to be […]

CAF 2026 Playoffs: Super Eagles Must Fight Till the End – Okpala

Former Super Eagles midfielder and assistant coach, Sylvanus Okpala, has called on Nigeria’s national football team to approach the CAF 2026 World Cup playoffs with total determination, saying the journey may be tough but is far from impossible. Okpala, who won the 1980 AFCON as a player and the 2013 AFCON as assistant coach to the late Stephen Keshi, said in a chat with Sports Vanguard that he has always believed in fighting until the last minute, even when others lose hope. “Before the match against Benin Republic, many had written us off,” he said. “But my philosophy, as both a player and a coach, is never to give up until there is nothing left to fight for. Even during the 1980 AFCON camp, I was among many players fighting for a spot, and I gave everything until the end. […]

World Cup Qualifier: Super Eagles Eye Crucial Revival vs Rwanda

Nigeria’s Super Eagles face Rwanda in Uyo on Saturday in what is widely regarded as a defining clash for their fragile 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying campaign. The three-time African champions are at a crossroads. Having missed the 2022 finals in Qatar, Nigeria now risk consecutive failures — a prospect that would severely dent the country’s proud footballing legacy. So far, the qualifiers have been frustrating. Despite conceding only one goal in six matches, Nigeria have been held to four draws, undermining their chances of topping Group C. For a squad stacked with talent, the lack of victories has left fans restless and anxious. Rwanda, meanwhile, arrive as underdogs but cannot be underestimated. They have lost two of their last four qualifiers and struggle away from home, dropping 60% of recent matches on the road. Yet their pace and discipline […]
