Brentford midfielder Frank Onyeka has admitted that Nigeria is currently in a difficult position amid the ongoing 2026 World Cup qualifiers.

Onyeka, however, expressed confidence that the Super Eagles, under the guidance of Eric Chelle, can defeat Rwanda and South Africa on Saturday and Tuesday.

“We are in a difficult position now, but as a team we are doing everything we can,” Onyeka said to Victor Modo.

“We are confident, we are training hard and everyone in the squad believes we can come out with good results [when we face Rwanda and South Africa].”

The Super Eagles currently trail South Africa, Benin Republic, and Rwanda in their qualifying group.
