The Super Eagles of Nigeria have qualified for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON).
Nigeria’s spot at the next AFCON was confirmed after Libya defeated Rwanda 1-0 on Thursday at the Amahoro stadium in Kigali.
The Eagles qualified for the competition with two games to spare. The team is billed to play the Benin Republic less than 30 after the match involving the other two teams in the group.
Nigeria are the leaders in Group D of the qualification with 10 points, followed by the Benin Republic with six points. Only the top two teams qualify for the group.
With the loss to Libya, Rwanda are on five points in third place, with just one game left to play. Libya are sitting at the bottom of the group with four points.
The Super Eagles started the qualification campaign with an emphatic 3-0 victory over the Benin Republic in the first leg of the encounter before playing a frustrating draw against Rwanda.
