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.

FIFA U20 World Cup: Flying Eagles Fall 1–0 to Norway Despite Dominance

Nigeria’s Flying Eagles suffered a narrow 1–0 defeat to Norway in their opening Group match at the 24th FIFA U20 World Cup on Monday, despite creating several late chances to equalise. The Scandinavians struck early in the 9th minute from a controversial penalty, leaving Nigeria chasing the game. Ladan Bosso’s men responded strongly, but appeals for two penalties in the second half were waved away by the referee. The Flying Eagles came agonisingly close to scoring on multiple occasions: Kparobo Arierhi fired wide in the 47th minute with the goalkeeper beaten. Tahir Maigana rattled the upright in the 63rd minute before unleashing a long-range strike that flashed narrowly wide late on. Nasiru Salihu also tested the Norwegian defence with a powerful 71st-minute effort that sailed just over the bar. Despite sustained pressure and dominance in the closing stages, Nigeria could […]

Warri Wolves face 2-day road ordeal for NPFL tie in Maiduguri

Newly promoted Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) side, Warri Wolves, have endured a gruelling two-day road trip to Maiduguri for their clash against El Kanemi Warriors, reigniting debate on player welfare and transport challenges in Nigerian football. The team’s marathon journey began in Warri but suffered an early setback when their bus broke down in Asaba. A replacement vehicle was arranged, but it also developed faults, forcing repeated repairs in Benue State. As of Friday night, the team was still en route and expected to arrive just hours before Sunday’s fixture. Players will then face another two-day return trip immediately after the game, leaving minimal recovery time before their next outing. Players frustrated An anonymous player expressed the squad’s frustration: “Our welfare should be paramount to the management and the government. How can we travel two days by road, arrive […]
