Nigeria’s stuttering start to their World Cup qualifying campaign continued on Friday night in Uyo, as they were forced to settle for a 1-1 draw against South Africa.
This result marks their third consecutive 1-1 draw in the qualifiers, leaving them in a precarious position of second-from-bottom in Group C.
The Super Eagles began brightly, creating a handful of chances in the opening ten minutes. Lookman had the first real opportunity, firing after receiving a cross from Iwobi.
