Perhaps Lagos is not what it used to be the for the Super Eagles of Nigeria, the future will tell.
Contrary to all expectations, minnows, Central African Republic (CAR), yesterday, at the Teslim Balogun Stadium, Lagos, beat Nigeria 1-0 in a world cup qualifier.
Before yesterday, the Super Eagles had won their first two-game, home to Liberia and away at Cape Verde.
Central African Republic, on the other hand, were no-hopers as they had only one point from a home draw with Cape Verde to show in their two matches. Nigeria went into the game 90 spots above CAR in FIFA rankings.
Nigeria, three-time African champions, had lost none of their last 25 home matches in World Cup qualifiers going into the game. But all that came to a shattering end at the Teslim Balogun Stadium.
Then the unexpected happened in the stoppage time when Karl Namnganda beat the Eagles’ defence to shock the football world.
