FCON 2025: Play Like Champions — Odegbami Charges Super Eagles Ahead of Crucial Algeria Clash


Former Super Eagles captain and 1980 Africa Cup of Nations winner, Segun Odegbami, has urged the Nigerian national team, Super Eagles, to translate their individual talent into collective dominance by embracing confidence and belief.

In a video address posted on the Super Eagles’ official X handle on Friday, Odegbami stressed that self-belief is the crucial difference-maker in competitive international football.

From match to match, it could just be one moment of magic, it could just be one moment you are lucky, it could just be somebody’s mistake, and occasionally it is because you play well, you are coherent and so on and so forth.

Reflecting on Nigeria’s rich footballing history, Odegbami argued that the Super Eagles possess a depth of talent that should intimidate any opponent in Africa.

He also highlighted the recent successes of individual stars while paying homage to legends who paved the way.

Odegbami said, “With the quality that we have, with our history and the numbers that we have, no country in Africa should be struggling with us, from competition to competition.

As the Super Eagles prepare for upcoming challenges, especially the ongoing AFCON, Odegbami assured the team that playing with conviction often leads to deserved victories, not just lucky ones.
