The Super Eagles players celebrated their victory over Rwanda in Kigali, with William Troost-Ekong leading the dressing room charge.

The Super Eagles defeated Rwanda 2-0 at the Amahoro Stadium in Kigali on Friday, boosting Nigeria's chances of qualifying for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

The forward line was spearheaded by Osimhen, with support from Ademola Lookman, Moses Simon, Samuel Chukwueze, and Alex Iwobi.

Nigeria's World Cup hopes were revived by Victor Osimhen's two first-half goals, ending their winless streak in the qualifiers.

The Super Eagles players were ecstatic after securing a long-awaited win. The celebrations were led by Troost-Ekong, who eventually gave way to Ola Aina, Samuel Chukwueze and Alex Iwobi, who took over the dance floor. 

The players were recorded singing and dancing inside their locker room by the Super Eagles' official X account as they enjoyed the moment.

Fidelis Ilechukwu, the Rangers head coach, and one of Eric Chelle's assistants joined the lads in their dancing session.

Nigeria will host Zimbabwe in Uyo on March 25, and the Super Eagles are aiming for their second consecutive win to solidify their chances of securing a spot in the World Cup.
