‘Nobody does it like Naija’ — CAF hails Super Eagles' AFCON 2025 drip

The Super Eagles aren't just bringing football to AFCON 2025, they're bringing fashion. CAF can't stop raving about Nigeria's stunning cultural dress as the three-time champions touched down in Morocco fully kitted in green senators, and the compliment says it all.

Nigeria's delegation landed in Fez on Thursday after departing Cairo International Airport, turning heads as they stepped off the plane in their traditional native attire.

While other teams showed up in similar African attires and team-branded gear, the Super Eagles reminded everyone that representing your country means celebrating everything that makes it special and looking absolutely incredible while doing it.

CAF was so impressed they posted not just pictures, but a full video of the team's arrival ahead of the tournament, which kicks off on Sunday.

“Nobody does it like Naija. We're so glad you're here," CAF stated on X before adding; They say the beauty is in the details. Nigeria nailed every one.”

CAF’s comments capture what fans already know: Nigeria always understands the assignment when it comes to blending heritage with style.

The team had wrapped up their preparations with an international friendly against Egypt on Tuesday night at the Cairo International Stadium. Despite a spirited display, Nigeria suffered a 2–1 defeat after Sabad Mahmoud put the hosts ahead in the 28th minute.

Chidozie Awaziem drew Nigeria level late in the first half, but a 54th-minute strike from Mostafa Mohamed sealed the win for the Pharaohs. Following a recovery gym session on Wednesday, the team shifted focus to the tournament proper with Thursday's travel to Morocco.

Fez will host all of Nigeria's Group C fixtures at AFCON 2025, starting with Tanzania on December 23, before facing Tunisia on December 27 and rounding off the group stage against Uganda on December 31.

The Super Eagles arrived with confidence high and style unmatched and if CAF's reaction is anything to go by, Morocco better get ready for Nigeria to dominate both on and off the pitch.
