2026 WCQ: Super Eagles move up to third place with 2-0 win in Rwanda

Nigeria breathed life into their 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign, thanks to a 2-0 win in Rwanda on Friday night.

It was the Super Eagles first game under new head coach, Eric Chelle.

Victor Osimhen continued his hot streak in front of goal with a brace in the first half.

The striker who has shone this season for Galatasaray, opened the scoring with a side-footed finish from Ademola Lookman's free-kick.

Osimhen doubled the Eagles' advantage after stealing the ball on the halfway line and dinking it over the goalkeeper.

The result takes the three-time African champions up to third place in the group, following South Africa's 2-0 win over Lesotho.

Chelle's men will face Zimbabwe next on Tuesday.
