With the return leg set for Freetown this Tuesday, Super Eagles have got their work cutout following Republic of Benin’s win against Lesotho on Saturday.
Jodel Dossou’s 24 minute strike was all the Squirrels needed to mount a great pressure on the Super Eagles as they consolidated their third position.
Super Eagles tops the Group L with 7 points from three matches while Benin are second with 6 points from same number of matches.
A win away to Lesotho next week and if the Super Eagles record any scoring other than a win, the Squirrels will overtake the Eagles in Group L leadership.
