The Super Eagles’ qualification campaign has taken another twist, as their upcoming opponents, Zimbabwe players, have been promised a one hundred and fifty thousand dollars cash incentive to pull off a shock win against the Cheetahs of Benin and the Super Eagles in the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.

 

Originally, the Warriors, including their technical crew and support staff, were expected to receive one hundred and fifty thousand dollars from the Zimbabwean government if they defeated Benin on Thursday, the encounter ended two-two.

 

Another one hundred and fifty thousand dollars has been earmarked should they stun Nigeria’s Super Eagles in Uyo, a reward that could be seen as both motivation to the Warriors and an insult to the three-time African champions by virtue of its modesty.
