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.
Ndidi, who along with his teammates arrived in Benin Republic by boat on Friday for their crucial encounter with the Squirrels, has assured his side will do all it takes to give a good account of themselves at Stade Charles de Gaulle, Porto Novo.

“From the previous games, it wasn’t our best of games so it’s something that we have learnt so much of it,” Ndidi said.
“So we know what we have to do in this game, so I think it is one of those games that we have to actually give our everything.
“Because of the expectation after not doing so well in the last games, it’s this kind of game that we have to redeem our image.
“We are really looking forward to the game and we will try and do our best and see what comes out of it.”
