Super Eagles Fans Confident Ahead of Madagascar Clash

Ahead of the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier, football fans of the Super Eagles of Nigeria are optimistic about the team's chances of defeating Madagascar. The match is scheduled for September 25 at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo, Akwa Ibom.

Emmanuel Alozie, Technical Manager of Dominion Excellence Star Academy, believes the team has the quality to secure victory but urges the coaching staff to select a strong squad. Former international Benjamin James noted that while star striker Victor Osimhen is unavailable due to injury, Taiwo Awoniyi has the opportunity to step up.

James emphasized the need for caution against Madagascar, who have previously defeated Nigeria. Susan Olamidele, a football fan, expressed confidence in the team's spirit and quality.

The Super Eagles have won three of their last five encounters with Madagascar, with one draw and one defeat. The match is significant for Nigerian football, especially with Osimhen's absence confirmed by CAF.
