Bayer Leverkusen winger Nathan Tella has secured a spot in the starting lineup for Nigeria's upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier against the Warriors of Zimbabwe. Head coach Jose Peseiro has strategically opted for a 4-3-3 formation, with Francis Uzoho guarding the goal, and a defensive lineup featuring Ola Aina, Semi Ajayi, Calvin Bassey, and Bruno Onyemaechi.
The midfield trio comprises Frank Onyeka, Joe Aribo, and Alex Iwobi, while the attacking force sees Nathan Tella on the right wing, Moses Simon on the left, and OGC Nice forward Terem Moffi leading the team's charge. The Super Eagles aim for a decisive victory at the Huye Stadium, Butare, intensifying their pursuit of qualification for the prestigious World Cup.
