The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has officially delisted the Group D second-leg match between Nigeria’s Super Eagles and Libya’s Mediterranean Knights, which was scheduled for Tuesday in Benghazi.
The Libyan Football Federation (LFF) said Nigeria were to blame for the postponement of Tuesday's scheduled Africa Cup of Nations qualifier in Benghazi after the visitors refused to play the match citing mistreatment on arrival in the country.
The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) confirmed Monday that their national team had returned home after alleged "inhumane treatment" in Libya ahead of a 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier. "The Nigeria delegation departed the Al-Abraq Airport at exactly 15.05 hours, bound for the city of Kano, and onwards to the Federal Capital, Abuja," the NFF said in a statement. NFF director of Communications, Ademola Olajire, outlined in a 20-point statement the team's "ordeal on Libyan soil", saying the "keenly-anticipated match" had been "relegated to a fiasco by Libyan federal authorities and Football Federation".
The Nigerian delegation to the aborted Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Libya returned to the country yesterday with tales of woe. This is as the country’s football authorities, the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), as well as, the entire country await the continent’s football governing body, the Confederation of African Football (CAF) to make a pronouncement over the alleged beastial treatment meted to the Nigerian contingent, by Libyan authorities.
The Pillar of Sports in Africa, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu, has condemned the ill-treatment meted out to the Super Eagles of Nigeria in Libya. Kalu stated that CAF must sanction Libya for treating the Super Eagles with such disdain and disregard, saying, “CAF must make that decision as quickly as possible to serve as a deterrent to any African country that behaves in such an irresponsible manner.
