Libya Coach Aims for Draw Against Nigeria in AFCON Qualifier
Libya’s head coach, Nasser Al-Hadiri, has expressed that securing a draw against Nigeria in their upcoming 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier would be a positive outcome.
The Mediterranean Knights will face the Super Eagles on matchday 3 at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo on Friday. Al-Hadiri acknowledged the challenge of defeating the three-time African champions but emphasized their goal of fighting for at least one point.
“We know it’s difficult to beat Nigeria, but a draw would be a good result and keep our qualification hopes alive,” he told Libya News 24. Libya currently sits at the bottom of Group D with just one point from two games.

The coach explained why the team was eliminated. “Morocco has gained everybody’s respect now,” Ouahbi said, adding: “It’s not because of what we’ve said. We’ve now shown it.
“We completely dominated a Netherlands team. We had 70% possession, more shots and more expected goals. We controlled the match. We wanted to stay calm, play our game and believe that if it went to penalties, we had an exceptional goalkeeper. We didn’t turn the match into a chaotic battle. We controlled it.”
