South Africa and Nigeria will be setting things straight for a ticket at the 2026 World Cup, which will hold in Canada, USA, and Mexico.
The battle for supremacy between the Bafana Bafana of South Africa and the Super Eagles of Nigeria goes beyond football. The bragging rights cascade down to music, food, and culture.
The two nations have been squared up by FIFA and will face off in Group C for a qualifier alongside Zimbabwe, Benin, Rwanda, and Lesotho.
The last time these two teams battled each other, the Super Eagles came out victorious with a 2-1 win. The South Africans will be looking at rewriting this script in the Amapiano derby and securing a place in the 2026 World Cup.
