Ex-Super Eagles Striker Obinna: 'We Weren’t Good Enough for 2026 World Cup' — 1 of 2
1 / 2

Former Nigeria forward Victor Obinna says the Super Eagles failed on merit. He insists the team simply did not perform well enough across qualifiers to earn a spot in the 2026 World Cup. Obinna criticised Nigeria’s inconsistency under Jose Peseiro and Finidi George. He praised DR Congo for delivering when it mattered and said excuses should stop. He warned that Nigeria must confront its shortcomings or risk missing major tournaments again. According to Obinna, football success is based on results, not reputation.

It's easy to point at inconsistency, but that might overlook deeper issues affecting performance on and off the pitch.

I no see how inconsistent performance alone stopped us. Plenty teams wobble but still find a way to qualify.
