Amavubi of Rwanda defender Ange Mutsinzi has highlighted what the Super Eagles of Nigeria did to win Friday’s 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier in Kigali.
The Super Eagles recorded their first win in the qualifiers after overcoming the Amavubi 2-0 courtesy of a Victor Osimhen brace.
It was the first match in which Rwanda would concede at home in the qualifying series, leaving them dropping to third from first in Group C as the Super Eagles rose one spot to fourth.
“I think they(Nigeria) came strong, and they wanted to win, they deserve it, they have a good team and good strikers,” Mutsinzi explained to reporters.
“We have quality also. We won the last game (AFCON 2025 qualifier), and they won this game. Who knows the next game?”
The Super Eagles host Zimbabwe on Tuesday in Uyo while Rwanda are home to Lesotho on the same day in the next set of qualifiers.
