By: Abudu Olalekan Super Eagles. World Cup 2026. Play-offs. That’s where we are now. Not automatic. Not over. But still in. Still fighting. That 4–0 win over Benin in Uyo? Yeah, it mattered.

Remember? Said De Bruyne picked the wrong fight. But De Bruyne? Back on form. Brilliant again. Set up Hojlund. Twice. The goals. After the…
By: Akinde S. Oluwaseun So Marcus Rashford? He’s in Barcelona now. Yeah, really. Not forever. Not even maybe yet. Just… loaned.
