The Super Eagles now stay at the top of their group standings as they endured a scare in Tunisia to claim a third consecutive victory
An Odion Ighalo-inspired Nigeria secured a 3-2 victory over Libya to move to the top of Group E in their 2019 African Cup of Nations qualifiers in Sfax.
South Africa's goalless draw against Seychelles earlier on Tuesday had opened up the chance for the Super Eagles to move into a commanding position in the log and Ighalo's clinical showing helped the west Africans' hold off a much improved Meditteranean Knights side.
Odion Ighalo's brace and Ahmed Musa's effort were enough for Germot Rohr's men to survive the north Africans' scare in Sfax.
And football enthusiasts across social media have praised the team's fighting spirit and Ighalo who scored five goals in the doubleheader fixture.
