South African winger Oswin Appollis expects a top-level clash against Nigeria’s Super Eagles on Tuesday, on Matchday 8 of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers (African zone). The showdown will be played at Toyota Stadium in Bloemfontein.
Still chasing their first World Cup since hosting the 2010 edition, Hugo Broos’s Bafana Bafana sit atop Group A with 16 points. Nigeria, currently third, is already six points back.
Appollis, who scored against Lesotho on Friday, knows the opposition will be stiff: “It will be an exciting but difficult match. Nigeria has a lot of quality, but we’re ready to fight”, he told the Sowetan. See you tomorrow for the clash of the titans.
