MADUKA OKOYE 6/10
He was virtually on holiday in the game.The Sparta Rotterdam goalkeeper organised his defence well and was good with the distribution too.

Moses Simon acquainted himself well to the right wing-back position. An average above showing from the Nantes man.
JAMILU COLLINS 6/10
Performed his task well. Another good showing from the left-back.
LEON BALOGUN 7/10
The centre-back redeemed himself after the howler in the previous fixture on Thursday. Balogun scored the first goal and was impressive all through before he was replaced by Kenneth Omeruo.
LEON BALOGUN 6/10
Played well and kept Central African Republic dangerman Karl Namnganda at bay.
CHIDOZIE AWAZIEM 6/10
A surprise inclusion in the starting line-up. The Alanyaspor of Turkey defender gave a good account of himself in the game.

The Brentford midfielder picked up a yellow card early in the second half. He was one of Nigeria’s top performers in the game.

An improved performance from the talented midfielder. Still needs to show more on the international scene following a number of impressive displays for the Scottish Premiership champions Glasgow Rangers.
KELECHI IHEANACHO 6/10
Not at his best in the game but still did enough to help the Super Eagles secure maximum points.

CSN you rated Balogun twice and please osimhen did not score the first goal……..At least watch the match before reporting on it…..haba!
hello, do you even have power to watch the match or you are told the scoreline
Stupid ratings as usual,always confused with who dis what and when
Now that cape Verde are fully in the race again. Danger is looming again. History is about to be repeated. Instead of take the game as they come they are already talking about must win cape Verde match in Nigeria . And they forgot on how to plan to beat Liberia in Monrovia… Chi chi .. with wat this red light on this globe is telling me there in danger waiting in Liberia .NFf don’t ve history desk . The score between Liberia and eagle is out . If care is not taking. God forbid .to before warning is to before harming.
Beware of my national team, the blue sharks of cape verde, we are back on track, and will create a big upset in this world cup qualifiers.
Oh no, Cape Verde won’t beat CAR on November 11. It’s gonna be a draw or a win for the visitors. This qualifiers will be wrapped up then cos Nigeria will take the full points. 100% sure from my assessment of all the teams so far. Still we need some changes in this team to hit top gear.
Useless Coach failed to cap tie Bassey. Another tactical blunder to see what boy can offer another Eze UTurn in the making.
Based on today’s match, Aribo doesn’t have the capacity to do better than Iwobi as our playmaker. That’s my observation
