Super Eagles of Nigeria captain, William Troost-Ekong says the team will go all out for a win when they take on Zimbabwe in their 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying fixture.

The Super Eagles revived their hopes of qualifying for the 2026 World Cup with a 2-0 away win over Rwanda in Kigali on Friday, courtesy of two goals from star man Victor Osimhen.

Eric Chelle’s side will now host the Warriors at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, Uyo next week Tuesday.

“We read somewhere that the Zimbabweans are being motivated to come to Uyo and get a result. They should forget it,” Troost-Ekong told thenff.com.

“We are hugely motivated by the ambition to play at the FIFA World Cup. Apart from myself, Alex (Iwobi) and perhaps a couple others, who were part of the 2018 FIFA World Cup, this generation is hungry to play at the highest level.
