The Minister of Sports Development, Senator John Enoh has called on Nigeria’s Super Eagles to win their match against Libya.
Enoh advised against complacency against the Mediterranean Knights in a statement released on Thursday by his spokesperson, Diana-Mary Nsan, ahead of their 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier on Friday at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State.
“Your solid start in the qualifiers has put you in a favourable position to secure a place in the 2025 AFCON tournament.
“Nonetheless, you must guard your place, as the Mediterranean Knights will aim to defy expectations, seeking at least a draw in Uyo. Never undermine your opponents.
Super Eagles Head Coach, Augustine Eguavoen, is targeting a maximum of six points from the double header fixtures.
“There are possibilities and opportunities for us to sail home at the end of these two matches, and we will do our best to take our chances and have the ticket,” Eguavoen said.
So far, Nigeria has four points from their two matches, one point ahead of Benin Republic and two ahead of Rwanda. The Eagles will go to 10 points with a double win over Libya.
