I am pregnant with the previews of the Super Eagles\u2019 supremely crucial last two matches in the qualifying series for the FIFA 2026 World Cup, the first of which comes up tomorrow, Friday night.  There is a dilemma. I must submit my script today for it to be published and read on Saturday morning.  I will, therefore, have to play \u2018prophet\u2019 and write ( and be correct) in anticipation of what I believe will happen, otherwise I will end up after the match looking either like a fool or an expert when whatever will happen in the match on Friday night happens, and my audience are reading it on Saturday morning in the newspapers, or even listening to me on my radio program on Eagle7 Sports Radio 103.7 FM Abeokuta.  The fact is that Nigeria\u2019s Super Eagles are walking a very tight rope.  The match against Lesotho, ordinarily, should not be difficult for the Eagles to win considering that fate has gifted them the opportunity to play an extremely crucial away-match on a \u2018neutral\u2019 ground - South Africa! Lesotho do not have a ground in their country good enough for the \u2018size\u2019 of the match.   On paper, therefore, this morning Nigerians should be celebrating a match should be a stroll in the park for the Super Eagles.   Unfortunately, South Africans would have been monitoring that match closely too. South Africa are involved in the race for the single slot allotted the 5 teams in the Group - Nigeria, South Africa, Lesotho, Rwanda, Zimbabwe and Benin Republic.  Indeed, they were clear leaders (almost crowned winners of the Group) until fate came with its bag of tricks to add drama to the setting, and offered Benin Republic and Nigeria what has turned out to be a lifeline, and kept South Africa on a cliff hanger.   FIFA deducted 3 points and 3 goals from South Africa\u2019s scores, and gave them to Lesotho that were bottom of the table and without the possibility of qualifying even if they win their last two matches."}
