📸 World Cup qualifier: Osimhen’s unbelievable miss in the 102nd minute 😳 | OneFootball

Pardon ???

This Thursday evening, Nigeria and Gabon face off in Morocco for a spot in the final of the African zone World Cup 2026 qualification playoff tournament.

With the score at 1-1 in the 11th minute of added time, Victor Osimhen, Nigeria’s superstar, found himself alone, facing the goalkeeper, with the ball at his feet for a 2-1 lead and qualification just a minute before the final whistle.

But the Galatasaray striker missed this chance! Unbelievable!

The number 9 of the Super Eagles missed the unmissable.

Result: qualification for the final will be decided in extra time!

As a reminder, the winner of this duel will face the winner of the match between Cameroon and the Democratic Republic of Congo.

The big winner of these African zone playoffs will then go on to play in another tournament, during the March international window, featuring two teams from CONCACAF, one from the AFC, one from CONMEBOL (Bolivia), and one from the OFC (New Caledonia).
