Substitute Alex Iwobi scored the game’s only goal as Nigeria beat Zambia 1-0 to seal a 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia qualification on Saturday.

The Super Eagles laboured for most part of the game before Arsenal star Iwobi scored within eight minutes of coming on, slicing a Shehu Abdullahi cut-back underneath the Zambian defenders and goalkeeper.

Victory for the Nigerians at the Nest of Champions in Uyo took their points tally to an unassailable 13 points with one more game to spare.
