Eguavoyen believes the Super Eagles can still make up for a weak qualifying round.

But the 58-year-old said his players need to be mentally strong to achieve their goal.

“Nigeria need to think positively about qualifying for the World Cup,” Eguavoyen told Brilla FM.

“We have to approach every game like it’s a cup final and even if we’re 1-0 down, if we win the remaining games we have a great chance.”
