SUPER EAGLES BEAT CAPE VERDE 2-1

The Super Eagles on Tuesday came back from a goal to defeat Cape Verde 2-1 in the Qatar 2022 World Cup qualifiers.

Cape Verde drew the first blood in the 17th with a well-taken shot after a striker found himself free with goalkeeper Maduka Okoye.

But Napoli striker Victor Osihmen equalized in the 32nd minute after a defensive blunder before Cape Verde conceded an own goal in the second half.

Nigeria have six points from two games in a group that include Central Africa Republic and Liberia.
