The Super Eagles of Nigeria delivered a thrilling 4-0 victory over Benin Republic but failed to secure automatic qualification for the 2026 World Cup.
Victor Osimhen’s brilliant hat-trick and Frank Onyeka’s late goal sealed a dominant performance for Nigeria. However, South Africa’s 3-0 win over Rwanda kept them on top of the group and confirmed their direct ticket to the tournament.
Nigeria’s fate now lies in the playoff stage, where they will have another opportunity to fight for a World Cup place.
