Super sub Karl Namnganda’s 90th minute goal made the difference as the Central African Republic stunned Nigeria’s Super Eagles at home, beating them by a solitary goal in their third Qatar 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifier.

The Super Eagles had won their first two matches and were out to pick a third successive victory at home, but their failure to take their chances was punished with the visitors using one of their best two chances of the game to earn maximum points.

By virtue of the results, Nigeria remains top of Group C with six points while CAR climb up to third with four points, same as second placed Cape Verde who had earlier come from behind to beat Liberia 2-1.
