The Super Eagles of Nigeria have qualified for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations with two games in hand.
The team earned the spot in the continent’s most prestigious tournament even before their Thursday game against Benin Republic.
This was courtesy of a shock lone goal victory recorded by Libya in the Group D match away to Rwanda in Kigali on Thursday.

The victory for the Mediterranean Knights came before the kickoff of the match between the Super Eagles and Cheetahs of Benin Republic, also on Thursday in Abidjan, Cote d’Ivoire.
