Former Nigeria international, Mutiu Adepoju has predicted the outcome of the Super Eagles' 2026 World Cup qualifying match against South Africa. According to him, the game between the Bafana Bafana and the Super Eagles will be difficult. The Super Eagles exceeded expectations of many Nigerians by reaching the final of the competition in Ivory Coast following their very poor form before the competition.
Heading to match day 3, the Group C of the qualifying series is tight, with only two points separating the first placed team Rwanda and fifth placed Zimbabwe. 'South Africa is not going to be easy, we defeated them in the semifinals of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations and our women defeated them in the Olympic qualifiers,' Adepoju said to Hot Sports. 'It's always very tough playing against South Africa, just like playing against Cameroon in the past and even Ghana.
