Super Eagles head coach Eric Chelle has reflected on his side's away win over the Amavubi of Rwanda, DAILY POST reports.
The three-time African champions revived their hopes of qualifying for the 2026 FIFA World Cup with a comfortable 2-0 victory over Adel Amrouche's side at the Amahoro Stadium, Kigali, on Friday night.
It was Nigeria's first-ever win on Rwandan soil.
Galatasaray forward Victor Osimhen scored both goals for Nigeria in the first half.
“It was a difficult game; Rwanda have a great team. I am proud of my players' performance. We worked a lot within the few days,” Chelle said after the game.
“We had just two full training sessions. We kept the ball well in the second half-good performance from my guys (players).”
The Super Eagles have moved to fourth position in Group C with six points from five games.
