AFCON 2025 Qualifier: Benin Republic Coach Confident of Beating Super Eagles Again
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on WhatsappShare on EmailShare on Telegram

Benin Republic’s head coach, Gernot Rohr, is expressing strong confidence that his team will secure another victory over Nigeria’s Super Eagles. This optimism comes as both teams are set to face off in a crucial 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifier. The match will be held at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo on Saturday, September 7.

Rohr’s confidence is built on the recent success his team experienced against the Super Eagles. In June, during a 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier, Benin Republic defeated Nigeria 2-1. This win has bolstered the team’s morale and given them a significant boost in self-belief.

Reflecting on the upcoming match, Rohr stated, “This game is another rematch against Nigeria. It will be one of three more matches we have scheduled with them, including the upcoming return fixture for the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.”

He acknowledged the strength of the Nigerian team, noting, “It’s a rematch against a very good team. Despite their quality, we have gained confidence from our previous encounter and are prepared to face them again.”

Rohr’s approach to the game is focused on leveraging the positive momentum from their last meeting. He emphasized that the team’s preparation has been thorough, and their recent victory has provided them with valuable insights into the strengths and weaknesses of the Super Eagles. The coach believes that understanding these aspects will be crucial in formulating a strategy to secure another win.

As the match approaches, Rohr is expected to announce his squad on Thursday. This selection will be closely watched by fans and analysts alike, as it will reveal the tactical approach Benin Republic plans to use against Nigeria. The choice of players and their readiness will play a critical role in the outcome of the game.

The upcoming clash is anticipated to be a highly competitive and thrilling encounter, given the history of intense matches between the two teams. Fans of both sides are eagerly awaiting the game, which is expected to be a significant event in the qualification campaign for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.
