Spotted! Zimbabwe players jam to Davido’s ‘If’ ahead of Super Eagles clash in Uyo – Video

Soccernet.ng has spotted Zimbabwean players enjoying some Nigerian vibes while on a flight from Lagos to Uyo where they will lock horns with the Super Eagles of Nigeria. 

The 2013 Africa Cup of Nations champions are slated to play host to the Warriors of Zimbabwe at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium to secure all points, which might play a key role in their 2026 World Cup qualification.

Meanwhile, as the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier build-up between Nigeria and Zimbabwe continues to gather momentum, Soccernet.ng's reporter, who sat close to the players, recorded the Zimbabwean players enjoying some Nigerian vibes before the big game.

In the video, a few members of the Warriors squad are seen vibing and singing along to Davido’s 2017 smash hit “If” as they traveled en route to Uyo.

Watch the video here:

Despite the pressure of the qualifier, the players appeared in high spirits, confidently mouthing the lyrics of the Afrobeats anthem that took Africa by storm.

Davido’s “If” remains one of Nigeria’s biggest musical exports, and its popularity across the continent continues to be evident—even among footballers preparing to take on his home country on the pitch.

The Zimbabweans, who landed in Uyo at exactly 3:10 pm on Saturday, will be aiming to cause an upset in Uyo as they face a Super Eagles side hungry to bounce back in the qualifiers.

But clearly, they are also soaking in the atmosphere and enjoying their time in Nigeria—from one Afrobeats to the Nigerian delicacies.
