The home-based Super Eagles who started with a disappointing barren draw against Rwanda on Monday, are now group C leaders with 4 points, Libya following closely with 3 points.

A win for Libya would have seen them into the next round.

The match between Rwanda and Equatorial Guinea comes up later on Friday night.
