Nigeria vs Madagascar: Live Updates from Super Eagles’ 2027 AFCON qualifier in Uyo

Posted on September 25, 2026 by Hot Source

Nigeria will take on Madagascar as they begin their 2027 Africa Cup of Nations, AFCON, qualifiers on Friday evening.
The game is billed for the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State.
It will kick off at 5pm local time.
The Super Eagles have won the AFCON title three times in the past and are on a quest to add a fourth at the tournament that will be co-hosted by Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania.
Group L will be a tricky affair for Eric Chelle’s men as Tanzania have automatically qualified, meaning only one other team will get the ticket.
DAILY POST will provide live updates from the friendly on this page:

Galatasaray striker, Victor Osimhen, is ready to give his green light to a move to Arsenal, if the club changes its stance and agree a fee.

Osimhen has been linked with a move to the Premier League champions, who are keen to add a new striker this summer.

Mikel Arteta is in the market for a striker, following Viktor Gyokeres’ mixed debut campaign and Gabriel Jesus’ imminent departure.

Arsenal expressed interest in Atletico Madrid’s Julian Alvarez earlier in the summer, but the LaLiga side has already rebuffed several offers.

The possibility of the Gunners signing Osimhen was raised when Galatasaray approached Arsenal to discuss deals for Gabriel Martinelli and Ethan Nwaneri.

But the Turkish champions are unwilling to sanction Osimhen’s exit at the moment.

Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta, has bemoaned his players’ inability to take their chances as they lost 2-1 to Manchester City in the Premier League on Sunday.

The Gunners saw their six-point lead at the top cut in half with the defeat.

Erling Haaland scored the winner, after Kai Havertz cancelled out Ryan Cherki’s opener.

Arteta, speaking to BBC Match of the Day, said: “At the end it’s the result we came to conquer.

“We did a lot of things right to take the game where we wanted.

“We had the best chances in the game but we didn’t put them away and that’s the reality.”

On whether the belief is still there, he replied: “100%. I said to the boys we have to look in the mirror and the team we played in the moment, the history they have, to come back from a goal down.

“There’s a lot of things to take. The difference was in both boxes that’s for sure.”
