AFCON 2027Q: Chelle reacts to Super Eagles' victory over Tanzania

Super Eagles head coach Éric Chelle hailed his team's 3-1 triumph over Tanzania in their 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying match in Uyo on Friday. Alhassan Yusuf and Tolu Arokodare's goals, with the latter scoring twice, ensured Nigeria secured maximum points against Miguel Gamondi's Taifa Stars. Tanzania's lone goal came from Alphonce Msanga.

While Chelle recognized the victory, he admitted that his side had room for improvement before their return fixture in Zanzibar next Tuesday. Chelle told reporters, "There are a lot of good things, but there are some bad things. We are not perfect. We have a few days to correct everything." Currently, Nigeria leads Group L with six points from three matches, while Guinea-Bissau of Djurtu tops the group with seven points from the same number of matches.

The West African contingent will face Tanzania in a matchday four encounter at the Amaan Stadium in Zanzibar next Tuesday.
