Facing significant internal challenges such as player injuries and potential boycotts, Libyan coach Nasser Al-Hadhiri has been described by local media as taking on an almost impossible task in Nigeria.
In the words of a report from Akhbar Libya 24, “The challenge our team faces against Nigeria seems overwhelming.” The report highlights the strength of the Nigerian squad, featuring standout players like Ademola Lookman and Victor Boniface, making Libya’s task even more complicated.
Nevertheless, Coach Al-Hadhiri remains cautiously optimistic about the upcoming match. He shared his perspective, stating, “We understand that winning against Nigeria is a tough challenge, but our aim is to secure a draw. Achieving that would be a positive result for us and could reignite our hopes for qualification.”
