What should you know about Super eagles of Nigeria next fixtures?

Having drawn a bye in the first round of qualification, Gernot Rohr’s men were handed a dangerous group in the second round of games.

According to the draw held on January 21, 2020 Nigeria will slug it out against Cape Verde, Central African Republic and Liberia.

Failure for the three-time African champions to manoeuvre their way past their rivals in Group C will end their ambitions at the quadrennial football showpiece.

Since making their debut in USA 1994, the Super eagles of Nigeria next fixtures have only failed on one occasion to qualify for the competition, and this was in 2006. 

Their best outings in the competition were in 1994, 1998 (France), and 2014 (Brazil) where they reached the Round of 16.

When will Nigeria commence their qualifiers?

Super eagles of Nigeria next fixtures were meant to begin their journey to Qatar on October 5, 2020, although the Federation of International Football Association (Fifa) had never confirmed the fixtures.sz

Notwithstanding, Covid-19 has proven to be a cog in the wheel of progress as it has generated heated arguments on when football should return or not.

For instance, the leagues in France, Angola, Niger Republic, Belgium, and so many countries have ended abruptly, while the fate of England’s Premier League is yet to be finalized.

Euro 2020 has been pushed to 2021, while this season’s Champions League and the 2021 Nations League Finals have been shifted.
