‘Our Boys are 100% Professionals’ –Eguavoen Vows Super Eagles’ Victory against Rwanda despite already qualifying for AFCON 2025

 Super Eagles Head Coach, Augustine Eguavoen, has stated that his team will win Mondays game against Rwandas Amavubi in the final Group D match of the 2025 AFCON qualifiers at Godswill Akpabio International Stadium Uyo, despite already qualifying for the tournament .Speaking during Sunday evenings pre-match press conference at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, Uyo, Eguavoen said his players know how to handle such games effectively. With Nigerias qualification for the Morocco 2025 AFCON already secured, Eguavoen addressed concerns about maintaining focus against a Rwandan side desperate to win. Our boys are 100% professionals, and they know what it takes to win games. They wont blink for a minute. The same approach wed use against Brazil or Argentina is the same well use against Rwanda, Eguavoen stated confidently.Eguavoen clarified the absence of Ademola Lookman and Ola Aina. He revealed that Lookman was released after reporting a slight injury that limited his capacity to play at 100%, while Nottingham Forest requested Ainas release which was granted in order to maintain a good relationship with the club.  On Gabriel Oshos substitution during the Benin Republic match, Eguavoen explained it was a tactical adjustment unrelated to the players performance. We needed to switch from a back-three to a back-four, and I explained this to Osho, who understood,We didnt lose any away games. Football has evolved, and teams now prepare well against Nigeria. Earning points away deserves credit, he said. The post Our Boys are 100% Professionals Eguavoen Vows Super Eagles Victory against Rwanda despite already qualifying for AFCON 2025 appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
