The Super Eagles of Nigeria are currently facing Madagascar in their opening 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo.
Nigeria entered the match looking to start their Group L campaign with three points under head coach Eric Chelle.
The latest live score has Nigeria leading Madagascar 2–1.
Nigeria Looking for a Strong Start
The Super Eagles came into the fixture without star striker Victor Osimhen, who is unavailable because of a muscle injury. Taiwo Awoniyi was brought into the squad as his replacement.
Chelle had called on his players to attack from the beginning and avoid allowing Madagascar to settle into the contest.
The match is particularly important because Tanzania, one of the co-hosts of AFCON 2027, already has an automatic place at the tournament. Nigeria, Madagascar and Guinea-Bissau are therefore competing for the remaining qualifying position in Group L.
