After a notable hiatus, Nigeria’s Supersand Eagles are set to reignite their competitive spirit, travelling to Nouakchott this Friday for the 2024 Beach Soccer Africa Cup of Nations qualifier. Facing Mauritania in what promises to be a gripping match, the team is under the fresh leadership of Abdullahi Isa, supported by assistant Christopher Kadiri and goalkeepers’ trainer Bashar Samaila.
Editorial
The journey of the Supersand Eagles to Nouakchott was not just another qualifier but a pivotal moment in their redemption arc. The sands of Mauritania offer more than just a playing field they provide a chance for our Eagles to reclaim their glory and prove their resilience.
The squad, featuring stalwarts like Victor Tale and Emeka Ogbonna, is determined to overcome the disappointment of their last international outing at the FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup in 2019. With experienced and new talents alike, the team looks forward to restoring its prestige on the sandy pitches.
The appointment of a seasoned goalkeeper like Abdullahi Isa as head coach is a strategic move that rekindles hope. His experience, combined with the raw talent and determination of the team, heralds a promising return to form. As they step onto the sands, they carry the aspirations of a nation eager to see them soar once more.
