Super Eagles defender Ola Aina has expressed optimism that the Super Eagles of Nigeria will qualify for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
The Super Eagles suffered a setback in their bid to qualify for the mundial after they were held to a 1-1 draw by the Warriors of Zimbabwe at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium, Uyo, Akwa Ibom State on Tuesday.
The Éric Chelle side remain in fourth position in Group C, six points behind leaders, South Africa.
Despite the setback, Aina backed the Super Eagles to still make it to the mundial.
“We will make this World Cup, chill,” the Nottingham Forest defender wrote on Snapchat.
The Super Eagles will host Rwanda when the qualifiers resume in September.
