Defender Leon Balogun and striker Victor Osimhen were on target on Sunday as the Super Eagles of Nigeria defeated the Central African Republic (CAR) in Douala, Cameroon.
The Nigerian team needed the win to appease fans after suffering a surprise defeat in matchday 3 of the FIFA World Cup qualifier against the same team last week in Lagos.
