Super Eagles to trash Ghana again in 2022 World Cup draw

So Nigeria Super Eagles have been drawn to play Ghana in the playoffs that will determine who represents Africa in the Qatar 2022 World Cup. More so, Nigeria’s Super Eagles will have to get the better of the Black Stars of Ghana if they hope to qualify for a fourth straight FIFA World Cup.

Interestingly, the Super Eagles are looking like a completely different prospect at the AFCON following the departure of Gernot Rohr.

The match, however, will take place between March 24 and 29, with the first leg taking place in Ghana while the return leg will come up in Nigeria.

No doubt, the Super Eagles were one of 10 African nations who went into Saturday’s draw ceremony which had African legends El Hadji Diouf of Senegal and Emmanuel Adebayor, the former Togo international of Nigerian descent, as to draw assistants.

The Super Eagles, who have been to every FIFA World Cup except one since making their debut appearance at the 1994 tournament in the United States, qualified for the third round play-offs by virtue of their top-place finish in a second-round group that had Cape Verde, Liberia, and the Central African Republic.

The Black Stars, on the other hand, advanced to the third round play-offs after finishing ahead of South Africa, Ethiopia, and Zimbabwe in Group G.

Under former Nigeria international, Augustine Eguavoen, the Super Eagles, have romped through the group stage with a 100 per cent record and are looking like genuine AFCON contenders.
