Iroha Laments Lack of Super Eagles’ Spirit at 2026 World Cup
Former Super Eagles left-back Ben Iroha says this year’s FIFA World Cup in North America feels incomplete without Nigeria. Speaking from Dallas, he fondly recalled the 1994 tournament in the USA, when Nigerian fans and local supporters turned each match into a home game with green-white-green flags and electric energy. Watching the current finals on TV with his children, Iroha misses the Super Eagles’ flair and the community cheer that never materialised after Nigeria failed to qualify. He believes the team showed promise under coach Eric Sekou Chelle and suggests Nigeria might have secured a spot if Chelle had been appointed earlier.
