Super Eagles head coach Eric Chelle has said his team must show an improvement from their performance against Gabon to be able to conquer Democratic Republic of Congo in the final of the 2026 FIFA World Cup playoffs.
Chelle’s side thrashed the Panthers of Gabon 4-1 in the semi-final of the playoffs at the Prince Héritier Moulay El Hassan Sports Complex, Rabat on Thursday.
The Super Eagles will face the Leopards in the final at the same ground on Sunday.
Democratic Republic of Congo edged out the Indomitable Lions of Cameroon 1-0 to secure a date with the Super Eagles.
Chelle said they must correct their mistakes before the final fixture.
“We did a lot of good things (vs Gabon), but bad things too. We have to correct some things for the second game but I am confident of my players and what they have done,” Chelle said during his interaction with the media after the game.
