Nigeria plays goalless draw with Sierra Leone in Freetown

The Super Eagles of Nigeria played a goalless draw against Sierra Leone in the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers at the Siaka Stevens Stadium, Freetown on Tuesday.

The Eagles failed to redeem their image after they squandered a 4-0 lead to draw 4-4 in the first leg played at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium on Friday last week.

Eagles best chance fell to Kelechi Iheanacho in the 82nd minute, whose curling effort was parried by the Sierra Leonean goalkeeper.

The Nigerian team lost Oghenekaro Etebo to injury in the first half, as he was replaced by Shehu Abdullahi.
