The 2025 Africa Cup of Nations Cup Group D qualifier between Nigeria and Libya needed a late goal from substitute Fisayo Dele-Bashiru. The Eagles had laboured for almost all the match but could not find a way past the Libyan defence and goalkeeper Murad Al Wuheeshi.
The win keeps Nigeria top of Group D with seven points from their first three matches after Benin walloped Rwanda 3-0. The Super Eagles travel to Benghazi on Tuesday, and another win almost guarantees a place at the 2025 tournament in Morocco.
