osimhen and lookman set to lead nigerias super eagles against rwanda in tough afcon qualifying clash

Nigeria head to Rwanda for their second 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying match after a convincing victory over Benin in their opening fixture, Soccernet.ng reports .

The Super Eagles are determined to maintain their strong start, but Rwanda, under head coach Torsten Spittler, will look to cause an upset in front of their home fans.

Rwanda, known as the Wasps, are hoping to make only their second appearance at AFCON, having last qualified in 2004. They opened their 2025 qualifying campaign with a 1-1 draw against Libya in Tripoli.

Despite the Rwandans falling behind early, Innocent Nshuti netted their equalizer as they earned a share of the spoils.

Spittlers side has now gone unbeaten in two matches, and the German tactician has lost just once since taking charge last November.
