Nigeria
took a big step towards qualifying for the 2018 World Cup, with a comprehensive
4-0 win over Cameroon on Friday, at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium
in Uyo.

Nigeria will kill off any
hopes that African champions Cameroon will have of qualifying for next year's
World Cup if they beat the Indomitable Lions today.
Ahmadou
Ahidjo Stadium, Cameroon – return leg match venue
|
The
Group B match kicks of at 18:00 local time (17:00 GMT).
Nigeria
easily beat Cameroon 4-0 on Friday.
The
Super Eagles' win would also knock out Algeria, who host Zambia tomorrow.
In
another favourable scenario, Nigeria could still clinch a place in Russia next
year if Zambia lose or draw in Algeria tomorrow.
Cameroon's
coach Hugo Broos has already written off his side's chances of going to an
eighth World Cup.
In
another match being played tonight, Libya will face Guinea in what is nominally
a home match but is taking place in Tunisia, due to the ongoing instability in
Libya.
The
Libyans must win to retain even the slimmest hopes of reaching the World Cup.
