‘It’s Not Going To Be Easy’ — Super Eagles captain Troost-Ekong predicts tough match against Benin Republic

Nigeria’s male football team captain, William Troost-Ekong says the Super Eagles can expect a difficult test against the Cheetahs of Benin Republic.

The two West African neighbours will clash in a 2025 Africa Cup Nations qualifying tie at the Felix Houphet Boigny Stadium, Abidjan on Thursday.


The Super Eagles lost 2-1 to Gernot Rohr’s side the last time both countries met at the ground.


Troost-Ekong is looking forward to another difficult contest against the Cheetahs.


“The stadium is a familiar one for us and we have good memories from the AFCON. We will rather focus on the positive results we have taken away from here and work hard for another good day in the office on Thursday,” the centre-back told thenff.com.

“It is not going to be easy because the Beninoise are also chasing a ticket to the final tournament. However, our objective is clear: three points on the night.”
