'Nigeria is going to Partey on Ghana' - Super Eagles fans react to 2022 World Cup playoff draw
Published: January 23, 2022
Only one of Nigeria and Ghana will be going to the 2022 World Cup in Qatar as the two West African giants were drawn to face each other in the playoff draw held in Douala, Cameroon on Saturday, January 22.
The home and away legs will take place during the next FIFA window for international matches, from March 24-29, with the winner earning a place as one of Africa's five representatives in Qatar.
Given how they have impressed in Cameroon, it would be difficult to bet against the Super Eagles qualifying for their seventh World Cup in eight editions.
Ahead of the massive West African derby, many Super Eagles fans have taken to social media to share their thoughts on the games.
Most fans are confident of Nigeria securing a World Cup ticket , some highlighted that national pride is at stake while others made comments about Thomas Partey and the key players in the Ghana squad.
Here are some of the best tweets below :
