If Nigeria beats Zimbabwe, they will face the winner of the second match in the final, but if they lose, they will face the loser in the third-place playoff match.
The Super Eagles won the 2025 edition, defeating rivals Ghana in the semi-final and the Reggae Boyz of Jamaica in the final in Brentford, England.
What the coaches said
Super Eagles boss Eric Chelle praised Zimbabwe as a great team, referring to his second match in charge when a late Tawanda Chirewa goal equalised for the Warriors after Victor Osimhen’s opener in Uyo.
“Zimbabwe is a great team, a great team with strong players. If you want to talk about our last game, you need to talk not only about the result. Because if you see the result, you will say aha. But if you watch the game, we were supposed to win the game by at least 98 per cent,” he told Proudly Austin.
“Definitely, Zimbabwe is a great team. They come with a lot of motivation. They want to win.”
Interim head coach Kaitano Tembo, who replaced Michael Nees after the disappointment of AFCON 2025, applauded his team's commitment in training ahead of the match.
“We had a good first session. The energy and commitment from the players were very positive. You can see that the boys are excited to be here and excited to represent Zimbabwe,” he told ZIFA.
“These are important days for us as a team. We want to prepare well, work hard and make sure we are ready competitively. Every training session matters, and the players understand the responsibility that comes with wearing the national jersey.”
