The Super Eagles of Nigeria have returned home after they were forced to a barren draw against the Amavubi of Rwanda on Tuesday afternoon no thanks to the center referee who disallowed an obvious goal by Ademola Lookman

Speaking to ait.live at the departure lounge of the kigali international airport, team captain Troost Ekong says the final score line was not a reflection of the match

Ekong said the return of some players to the team is making the Super Eagles regain the desired momentum going into the next qualifying matches of the 2025 African Cup of Nations and the 2026 world Cup

After matchday two, the Super Eagles top group D with four points followed by Benin Republic with three points, Rwanda two points and Libya on the rear with just a point

The match day three fixture will see the Super Eagles take on Libya in Uyo on October 11 and the reverse fixture will come up four days later in Tripoli
