Alex Iwobi has said the Super Eagles will give their all to earn a place at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

The Super Eagles have endured a poor start to the qualifying campaign despite their strong pedigree in Africa.

The three-time African champions are winless in Group C after four matches.

The West Africans have amassed a paltry three points and face the danger of missing out on a place at the mundial after failing to qualify for Qatar 2022.

Iwobi declared that the team will push hard to qualify for the greatest football event in the world.

“Everyone wants to experience the World Cup—it’s the best and biggest competition in the world,” Iwobi told the BBC.

“We know it’s not going to be easy because every team in Africa wants to qualify. It’s basically like going to war every game, but we’ll put up a fight and try and see what we can do. We’re all hungry and motivated.”
