Super Eagles finished the Afcon qualifying campaign unbeaten and at the top of their group after defeating Lesotho 3-0 in Lagos on March 30, 2021.
Victor Osimhen’s goal in the 23 minutes of the game, Oghenekaro Etebo’s goal 5 minutes into second half and Paul Onuachu strikes helped the Super Eagles to victory.
Coach Gernot Rohr made a few changes to the starting eleven that played in their 1-0 victory over the Republic of Benin at Stade Charles de Gaulle on Friday.
Iwobi also returned to the starting eleven after missing the game against Benin as he tested positive for Covid-19 before the encounter but was cleared to play against Lesotho by Caf after testing negative for the coronavirus from a second test.
