Super Eagles and Bayer Leverkusen striker Victor Boniface has expressed the national team’s eagerness to face Rwanda in their upcoming World Cup qualifier, emphasizing their unwavering determination to secure a spot in the prestigious tournament.
The Super Eagles endured a disappointing start to their World Cup qualifying campaign, failing to secure a win in their first four matches, with three draws followed by a frustrating loss to Benin.
Following their dismal start, the Super Eagles now find themselves in a precarious must-win situation, where anything less than a victory against Rwanda will effectively shatter their hopes of qualifying for the 2026 World Cup.
In an exclusive interview with football journalist Victor Modo, Victor Boniface emphasized the importance of securing a win: “We are looking forward to the game, we know how important this game is to us and as a country. We need to be at the World Cup so I can speak for myself and the other players, we are ready to give our best and hopefully get out with a win.”
