Super Eagles Host Libya Live On DStv, GOtv

The Super Eagles of Nigeria will aim to consolidate their lead in Group D of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers, when they host the Mediterranean Knights of Libya, in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, on Friday. In September, the Eagles defeated Benin Republic 3-0 in Uyo, followed by a goalless draw away to Rwanda. With four points from their first two matches, the Eagles sit top of the group, while the Knights are fourth with one point. A win against the Libyans will put the Eagles in command of the group with three matches to play. Watch the encounter live on SuperSport La Liga (DStv ch 204 and GOtv ch 62), at 5pm on Friday. Speaking ahead of the game, Libya head coach, Nasser Al-Hadiri, said his team will be missing key players, which puts them at a huge disadvantage against a star-studded Super Eagles. “The challenge is not in facing Nigeria which has world-class attackers like Victor Osimhen, Boniface, Ademola Lookman, but also in influential absences in our squad which may hinder the team’s chances of achieving a positive result,” he said. In his media conference, Super Eagles coach, Augustine Eguavoen warned that the match won’t be a smooth sail, as Libya will aim to avoid defeat. “They will come here and fight. It’s going to be tough, but the boys are in good spirits. We will fight for the three points. We know how important it is to secure qualification as early as possible,” Eguavoen said. The match is the first of the doubleheaders between both sides. The Super Eagles will face Libya in the return leg on October 15.
