The Super Eagles have showcased a remarkable level of confidence, displaying solid defensive capabilities and a more aggressive approach on the offensive front in their recent matches. Their star player, Victor Osimhen, who was previously sidelined due to abdominal pain, has made a swift recovery, providing a sigh of relief for coach José Peseiro and his team as they can now rely on his talents.
