Nigeria’s 4-0 win over Benin wasn’t enough to secure automatic World Cup qualification, but they’re still in the running as one of the best runners-up with 17 points. This position gives them a second chance to qualify through the playoffs. The Super Eagles’ recent performances have been impressive, with wins over Lesotho (2-1) and Benin (4-0) in the FIFA World Cup qualifiers. They’ll need to maintain this momentum to secure a spot in the World Cup through the playoffs.
