WORLD CUP:EMOTIONAL MOMENT AS SUPER EAGLES BECOMES 1ST TEAM FROM AFRICA TO QUALIFY FOR RUSSIA 2018

It is no longer news that the Nigerian football team have secured a spot at next year’s  World cup  tournament in Russia.
However, an emotional moment ,Super Eagles  defender Leon Balogun,29, broke down in tears after himself and his teammates earned the much needed three points against Zambia to earn a ticket to the world Cup in Russia.

The victory confirmed Super Eagles place and one that will have made Coach Gernot Rohr a very relieved man indeed.

Nigeria becomes the 1st team from Africa to qualify for the World Cup. Alex Iwobi was the the hero in the clinching 1-0 win over Zambia.

The first half of the encounter ended goalless, with the Chipolopolo the better side, troubling the Super Eagles with their pace in attack.
