Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen was in sensational form, netting a hat-trick as Nigeria cruised to a 4–0 victory over Benin in Uyo.
However, despite the emphatic win, Nigeria failed to secure an automatic qualification for the FIFA World Cup following South Africa’s 3–0 triumph over Rwanda, which sealed their top position in the group.
Football analysts have praised Osimhen’s outstanding performance and leadership on the field, though the result was not enough to guarantee Nigeria’s ticket to the global tournament.
