Nigeria midfield legend, Sunday Oliseh, has posited that Super Eagles home-based players will beat Lesotho.
Oliseh stated this while reacting to Thursday’s disappointing 1-1 draw with Lesotho in Group C, matchday one of the FIFA 2026 World Cup qualifier in Uyo.
Lesotho took the lead through Motlomelo Mkwanazi in the 56th minute from a corner kick.
West Brom defender Semi Ajayi equalised for the Eagles after heading in a Moses Simon corner.
Reacting to the result Oliseh described it as a national embarrassment.
