Former Super Eagles coach, Chief Festus Onigbinde, has told Nigerians not to expect magic from the senior national team in their quest to qualify for the 2026 World Cup.

Recall that Nigeria has managed 1-1 draw against Lesotho and another 1-1 draw against Zimbabwe in their campaign to sit third on  Group C table.

Speaking with Completesports.com, Onigbinde stated that the state of football in the country is not what it used to be in the past.

“What is happening to Nigerian football is very bad and we should not focus only on the 2026 World Cup qualifiers or 2023 AFCON.

“These things are not achieved overnight but something you have to prepare for over a period of time. But we always expect magic to happen from Eagles.”
