Ndidi: Super Eagles will redeem their image against Benin

Leicester City midfielder Wilfred Ndidi has promised the Nigeria national team will redeem themselves when they face the Republic of Benin in the 2022 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers on Saturday.

The three-time African champions laboured to back-to-back draws against lowly-rated Sierra Leone in their last qualifying games in November.

The Super Eagles were severely criticized by their fans for the not too impressive performances, although the results were still good enough to ensure they maintained their lead at the top of Group L.
