This result is more than just three points; it restores confidence in the squad after a series of mixed performances earlier in the qualifiers. The Super Eagles had been under pressure from fans and analysts alike, with concerns about their ability to convert chances and finish strongly in matches. Against Rwanda, however, the team showed resilience, discipline, and the hunger needed to push forward in the race for a spot at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Supporters celebrated the win across the country, calling it a reminder of the Super Eagles’ fighting spirit and determination. Analysts praised Arokodare for stepping up at a crucial moment, while also highlighting the need for the team to build on this momentum ahead of tougher fixtures still to come. With this victory, Nigeria moves closer to securing qualification, and optimism is once again growing that the nation will proudly be represented on football’s biggest stage in 2026.
