Rwanda Shock Super Eagles At Home But Fail To Qualify For AFCON

Rwanda produced a brilliant display on Monday in an Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifier, beating already-qualified Nigeria 1-2.

Despite the win, the Rwandans did not make it to the competition as they fell short to Benin Republic who picked the group’s second ticket.

A brilliant solo effort from Samuel Chukwueze had given Nigeria the breakthrough in the 59th minute. But two quick-fire goals from the Amavubi silenced the Nigerian home crowd and handed a historic win to the Rwandans.
