Osimhen saves Super Eagles against Benin as Nigeria claim top spot in Group D

 Nigeria’s Super Eagles’ blushes were spared thanks to a late Victor Osimhen header that rescued a point in a 1-1 draw against Benin Republic.

The Super Eagles, already guaranteed a spot at next year's Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco, needed Osimhen’s goal in the 81st minute to draw against Benin Republic in Abidjan after Mohamed Tijani gave the home side the lead in the first half.
