2026 WCQ: Ahmed Musa sends message to Super Eagles ahead of Benin clash

Nigeria striker Ahmed Musa has charged the Super Eagles ahead of their crucial World Cup qualifier against Benin Republic.

Eric Chelle's side will lock horns with Gernot Rohr's team at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium in Uyo later today (Tuesday, October 10).

The Super Eagles must win against Benin and hope that South Africa drops points against Rwanda to stand any chance of qualifying.

Speaking ahead of the clash, Musa, who is currently out of the team, has urged the team to go all out against the Cheetahs.

“We all know what’s at stake — win the game and wait for the other result. I know you can do it. This would be the best birthday gift for me, guys. I miss you all and wish you the best of luck. I know we can do it, let’s do it again today,” Musa said in a short video posted on the Super Eagles' X handle.
