Hupu September 10th In a just-concluded World Cup African qualifier, Group C leader South Africa took the home court and drew 1-1 with visiting Nigeria.

After this game, South Africa has already led the second in the group and the third in the group with one less game, Benin is 6 points. They can qualify for the US, Canada and Mexico World Cup as early as the next round.

South Africa created an own goal from Nigerian defender Ekon in the first half, and Fulham central defender Bassi equalized the score for Nigeria before the end of the half, and the game ended with a draw.

Nigeria only received 11 points after 8 matches. Since the rules for the World Cup in Africa are that 9 groups are directly qualified and 4 best-achieved second-teams are held in the play-offs, Nigeria has basically determined that it cannot become one of the four best-achieved second-teams, so there is only theoretical possibility for them to advance to the US, Canada and Mexico World Cup.
