Rwanda’s Amavubi head coach, Torsten Spittler, has declared that his team will give their all in their upcoming match against Nigeria’s Super Eagles, as they fight to keep their 2025 Africa Cup of Nations hopes alive.
The Rwandan side must secure a victory against the Super Eagles to stand any chance of qualifying for the prestigious tournament.
Although Nigeria has already secured their spot in the 2025 AFCON, they remain determined to extend their unbeaten streak in the qualifying series.
Currently, Rwanda occupies third place in Group D with five points, just two points behind second-placed Benin Republic.
Speaking at a press conference in Uyo, Spittler emphasized the high stakes for his team.
“It’s clear that if we must go to AFCON 2025, we’ll have to win here [against the Super Eagles],” he said. “So, that’s our mission here. I’m expecting an interesting match against Nigeria, and we’ll have to fight until the last minute.”
With Rwanda desperate for a win and Nigeria keen to maintain their momentum, the upcoming match is set to be a thrilling contest. Both teams have everything to play for as the qualifiers heat up.
