NIGERIA 1 CONGO 1: NIGERIA PLAYERS RATINGS

•Francis Uzoho — Confident. Lucky not to concede a penalty after charging off his goal line to stop a Congolese player. 7/10
•Tyronne Ebuehi — Energetic. Exuded confidence. Lost possession in the Nigeria penalty area, presenting Benik Afobe with a chance. 6.5/10
•William Troost-Ekong — Nice game. Capped it with a goal — his first in a Super Eagles shirt. 7/10
•Leon Balogun — Not his usual self. 5/10
•Elderson Echiejile — Careless at times. 5/10
•Ogenyi Onazi — Committed too many fouls. 4/10
•Ogenekharo Etebo — Did little going forward. 5/10
•Joel Obi — Another poor showing from the Torino man. 4/10
•Kelechi Iheanacho — Had very little impact. Substituted just before the restart. 4/10
•Junior Lokosa — Showed flashes of brilliance. With the midfield struggling to do their job, he had to play deep at times. 5/10
•Simeon Nwankwo — Hit the post in the first half. Forced the Congolese goalkeeper into a smart save with a header. May have earned a place in Nigeria’s squad to Russia. 6.5/10
