Nigeria will take on South Africa in a crucial 2026 World Cup qualifying game in Uyo, Akwa Ibom on June 7.
The Bafana Bafana come up against the Super Eagles in a Day 3 encounter of the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying series at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium, Uyo.
With two points from their previous two matches, but aware of the hold they have over the Bafana Bafana, the African vice-champions are confident of the three points on the day, which could see them fly to the top of the pool.
It was on 7th February at the Stade de la Paix, Bouake that the Super Eagles kicked Bafana to the third-place match of the 34th Africa Cup of Nations.
Despite achieving parity late in the game, the Bafana were cut to size during the penalty shootout with Nigeria’s South Africa-based goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali saving two of the kicks by the Bafana.
