Former Super Eagles coach Gernot Rohr named three key players who could have made a difference in Nigeria's last 2026 World Cup qualifiers, Soccernet.ng reports.

The Nigerian Eagles drew 1-1 against South Africas Bafana Bafana and lost to the Republic of Benin, further diminishing their hopes of qualifying for the next World Cup.

Nigeria was without 2023 Africa Cup of Nations player of the tournament William Troost-Ekong, Napoli forward Victor Osimhen, and FC Nantes star Simon Moses, who could have made a difference.
