Corporate partners of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) have offered incentives to motivate the Super Eagles as they host the Warriors of Zimbabwe in Tuesday’s 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium, Uyo.
Nigerian Breweries, through their brands Goldberg, Life Continental and Zagg Energy drink, are sponsoring the man-of-the-match award for the sum of N1 million. The dummy cheque will be presented to the winner right on the pitch immediately after the final whistle.
On their part, Carloha, official automobile company of the NFF and the national teams, will sponsor the Chery Most Valuable Player award, also for the sum of N1m. The dummy cheque for the amount will equally be presented to the winner on the pitch after the match.
Sports journalists attending Tuesday’s match will vote for the man of the match as well as the Most Valuable Player.
Meanwhile, the General Secretary of the NFF, Dr Mohammed Sanusi, has confirmed that the first 500 persons to buy match tickets for Tuesday’s 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying match between Nigeria and Zimbabwe at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium, Uyo will get a Super Eagles’ home jersey.
“We are calling on Nigerians to come out in large numbers to support the Super Eagles on Tuesday. The team needs the support. When we played Rwanda in Kigali on Friday, the Rwandans filled up the Amahoro Stadium to its full capacity. Let our people also come out in throngs and cheer the Eagles,” Sanusi said.
“We are also appealing to fans to come to the stadium in Nigerian colours. Let us fill up the stadium in green and white colours, and drum and dance to support the team.”
The NFF has also confirmed that match tickets will be available for sale on match day, with the VIP tickets going for N3,000 and the regular seats for N1,000 each.
