Super Eagles star Ademola Lookman, has revealed the plan of the Nigerian team ahead of their clash with Rwanda.

Nigeria face a difficult task in overturning their disappointing qualifying series in a bid to qualify for the 2026 World Cup.

The team has only managed three points in their last four games, having lost one and drawn three.

They will need to win their remaining game in the qualifying series to get a ticket to the FIFA World Cup.

In an interview with the NFF, he said, “Now, the team is looking forward to Friday’s game, the first game. We’re looking to go out there and to work hard and to impose ourselves on the game and have a good time.

“We know Rwanda is a good team, we know about their quality, but at the end of the day, we need to be focusing on ourselves and try to bring the game to them, to fight together for the win.

“Everybody knows the level of the players that we have here. It’s an incredible group of players, and most importantly, they’re good people. Everyone has the same objective – to want to win, and that’s very important.

“The group is together, very tight-knit, so that’s the winning formula. Everybody’s positive, we’ve had two good training sessions. So we’re looking forward to putting out a great performance.”
