On November 17, Nigeria lost to the Democratic Republic of the Congo in a penalty shootout in the African play-off final of the World Cup preliminaries and missed the World Cup for the second consecutive time. During the game, the Nigerian coach's substitutions caused heated discussion.

Osimhen was excused for being substituted at the beginning of the second half due to a head injury due to a collision with an opponent.

In the 57th minute of the game, Chukwueze and Lookman were also substituted. This also means that all the starting three forwards worth a total of 120 million euros have been replaced.

In the end, neither side made any further achievements, and Nigeria lost the penalty shootout 3-4.
