On Saturday, October 26, the Confederation of African Football, CAF, awarded three points and three goals to the Super Eagles following the failed 2025 African Cup of Nations qualification match against Libya.
After the verdict, the Super Águilas consolidated their first position in the group.
The Nigerian team now has 10 points from four matches, four points ahead of their nearest rival, Benin.
Libya remains at the bottom of the group with one point.
A draw with Benin in Abidjan next month will qualify the Super Eagles for AFCON 2025 to be held in Morocco in December 2025.
The Confederation of African Football (CAF) also fined the Libyan Football Federation $50,000.
The fine must be paid within 60 days of notification of the decision.
