BREAKING: Nigeria through to next round of WC qualifier, beats stubborn Swaziland 2-0

Simon Moses scored a brilliant free kick

Super Eagles of Nigeria got the better of stubborn Swaziland as they dumped them 2-0 in their second leg World Cup qualifier match at the Adokiye Amiesemaka Stadium in Port
Harcourt today November 17, 2015. The Eagles have to wait till the second half as goals from Simon Moses' brilliant free kick and a stunner from defender Efe Ambrose was enough to get the job done and send Nigeria through to the next stage of the 2018 World Cup qualifiers.
The head coach of the Super Eagles Sunday Oliseh made so nervy changes in the first team that started the match as Chelsea's midfielder John Obi Mikel was dropped to the bench for Sunshine star's Paul Onobi and the gamble sure paid off as their was more creativity in the midfield compared to the first game in Lobambo.

Nigeria starting XI vs Swaziland - Carl Ikeme – Shehu Abdulahi, Chima Akas, Austin Oboroakpo, Efe Ambrose – Ogenyi Onazi, Paul Onobi, Sylvester Igbonu – Moses Simon, Odion Ighalo, Ahmed Musa (Skipper)

Swaziland starting XI – Gwebu – Mandla Palma, Dlamini, Mdluli, Nxumalo, Mthunzi Mkhontfo, Dlamini, Njabulo, Sanele Mkhweli, Phumlami Dlamini, Hlatjwako
