Nigeria should be back at the 2026 World Cup, 32 years after winning hearts in the USA, they will be back in the United States, Mexico and Canada. Can the powers that be develop a squad, coaching staff, and stadiums fit enough to make 200+ million people proud? It is time to usher in a new generation of Nigerian football. When they are not playing well, it adds to the pent-up frustration. Manager Augustine Eguavoen was the assistant coach when Nigeria did not qualify for the 2006 World Cup, he is a legend on the pitch, but off of it, he has failed to replicate what Aliou Cisse and now Rigobert Song have done for their country. That means hiring the best coaches, fixing the stadiums, paying the coaches and players on time, recruiting and calling up the best players, whether that is domestic or foreign-born. Maybe. But there was no plan to find anyone after he was gone, which is why firing him was a very unserious and now costly decision. It was not a pretty sight after the AFCON win. A lot of Nigerian media members advocate for local-based players and coaches, but when it comes down to it, there are not that many players or coaches who can take Nigeria to that level. There are a lot of egos within Nigerian football, everyone seemingly wants the best but in reality it seems the other way. Let's start with the obvious: it was horrible goalkeeping for the Thomas Partey goal in their 1-1 draw against Ghana on Tuesday. The players looked like they were waiting for a third and fourth leg. On Sept. 30, 2014 Amaju Pinnick took over as president of the Nigerian Football Federation. He oversaw the disaster that was not qualifying for the 2015 (two years after Nigeria won AFCON) and 2017 AFCON tournaments. Who is to blame for Nigeria not qualifying for the 2022 World Cup? It's a large pie, everyone can get fed.

Nigeria and Ghana will battle it out for a place in the 2022 World Cup on Tuesday when they meet in the second leg of their third round qualifying tie.

Nigeria and Ghana know what it takes to reach a World Cup finals, having graced plenty of global showpieces in the past, but only one can book their tickets ...

Ghana and Nigeria first locked horns at the Africa Cup of Nations in 1992, when the Black Stars secured a 2-1 win. With so much at stake a cagey contest was to be expected, with neither team wanting to play their way out of contention, but games will need to be raised – particularly in the final third – in order for a victor to emerge and the potential for nerve-shredding extra-time and penalties to be avoided. In the United States, the game will be available on ESPN+, with millions around the world ready to tune in and catch a glimpse of some superstar performers in action.
