EKO HOT BLOG reports that Bafana Bafana, under coach Hugo Broos, currently lead Group C with 13 points from six matches, sitting six points ahead of the Super Eagles. With only four rounds of matches left, Nigeria faces a tough battle to secure a place at the World Cup.

Speaking to SCORENigeria, Chelle emphasized the team’s must-win situation. “We must triumph in South Africa; however, our immediate focus must be on the match against Rwanda in Uyo,” he stated.

Acknowledging the quality of South Africa’s squad, he added, “They are a formidable side, but we cannot afford to let them dictate the pace of the game.”

Before the Super Eagles can shift their attention to the clash in South Africa, Chelle insisted that overcoming Rwanda at home remains the team’s first priority.
