The Super Eagles of Nigeria suffered another setback in their 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying campaign as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Zimbabwe, who scored a late equalizer to deny the three-time African champions a much-needed victory.
The match, played on Sunday, saw Nigeria struggle to break down a resilient Zimbabwean side.

This result leaves Nigeria’s chances of securing a spot at the 2026 World Cup in danger, as they continue to drop valuable points in the qualifiers.
