Guinea-Bissau beat Nigeria 3-0 in 2027 AFCON qualifiers, topping Group L as CAF reiterates fight for the group’s sole place because of co-host Tanzania.

Nigeria struggled to impose themselves from the start and fell behind in the 15th minute when Franculino Djú drilled a left-footed strike past goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali after receiving an assist from Renato Nhaga.

Iwobi will take over the captaincy from Wilfred Ndidi, who led Nigeria in their 2-1 comeback victory over Madagascar at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium in Uyo on Friday.

The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the Super Eagles departed Nigeria on Sunday for Bissau ahead of their second Group L qualifying fixture.
