Sports




Nigeria’s Super Eagles brought joy to the nation tonight after securing a 1-0 victory over Zambia on Saturday to become the first African team to qualify for the Russia 2018 World Cup.

The Super Eagles, though, late,  got a second-half goal by substitute Alex Iwobi which separated both sides in a hotly-contested encounter that was littered with a myriad of near-misses and missed gilt-edged chances.

The final match which was very entertaining also witnessed a harvest of missed opportunities on both sides and of course have sparked lots of conversations in the social media.
