Super Eagles Vs Benin Republic: Two Early Birds Arrive In Abidjan

Nasarawa United defender, Victor Collins and New England Revolution midfielder, Alhassan Yusuf are two early birds to arrive Super Eagles camp on Monday.

The USA based player, Alhassan Yusuf will travel from Kano to Abuja from where he heads to Abidjan alongside new invitee, Victor Collins.

Collins is being invited for the first time to the camp and the only domestic player in the 23-man list for the Super Eagles 2025 African Nations Cup qualifier games versus Benin Republic and Rwanda.

Super Eagles will trade tackles with Benin Republic on Thursday, 14th November in Abidjan in the matchday 5 fixture before returning to Nigeria to host Rwanda in the last match of the 2925 AFCON qualifier on 18th November, 2024.

Currently atop Group D, the Super Eagles need only a point against Benin to secure their AFCON spot.

A draw would take them to 11 points, uncatchable by Rwanda, their final-day opponents.

With a dominant goal tally of seven scored and none conceded (boosted by CAF’s award of three points and three goals due to Libya’s forfeiture), Nigeria stands in a strong position, while Rwanda trails with a single-goal deficit and five points.
