Nigeria’s Super Eagles will face DR Congo in the final of the African World Cup playoffs on Sunday, November 17, 2025, in Rabat, Morocco.
The winner will advance to the inter-confederation playoffs in March 2026, competing for a spot in the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
The Super Eagles secured their place in the final with a 4-1 extra-time win over Gabon, led by Victor Osimhen’s brace.
DR Congo, on the other hand, edged out Cameroon 1-0, thanks to Chancel Mbemba’s stoppage-time goal.
This match promises to be an exciting encounter between two African football powerhouses.
Nigeria is seeking its seventh World Cup appearance, while DR Congo aims to qualify for only its second World Cup, after its first appearance in 1974 as Zaire.
