Black Stars of Ghana qualifies for FIFA World Cup in Qatar after defeating Super Eagles of Nigeria

Nigeria host Ghana in the second leg of their 2022 World Cup playoff on Tuesday, knowing only a win can ensure they grab one of the five tickets to represent the continent in Qatar. (Read More Here).

The Super Eagles failed to score in Kumasi last Friday, hence they have no goal advantage ahead of today’s match.

Away goals are still in force in the Africa qualifying series.

If Nigeria had scored at the Baba Yara Stadium, they would have been in a better position to finish the job on home soil.

Nigeria then took control of the game and equalised after Ademola Lookman was brought down in the box by Dennis Odoi. The decision went to VAR and William Troost-Ekong made no mistake from the penalty spot.

Nigeria thought they'd taken the lead in the 34th minute but were aggrieved when VAR ruled out Victor Osihmen's strike for offside.
