Below is the LIVE update of the AFCON 2017 qualifier between Nigeria and Tanzania being played in Uyo
76' Nigeria have taken the lead, goal scored by iheanacho
58′ Iheanacho does well to create space and shoot but its tipped over by the GK.
53′ Iheanacho blasts one high when he should have kept it on target.
Minutes later, Mikel heads over from a corner. Two chances goes begging.
50′ Nigeria pick up from where they left off, dominating the play but still unable to convert their chances.
46′ The second half is underway, which team is going to draw the first blood?
45′ HALF TIME: Nigeria 0-0 Tanzania Nigeria with the chances but still no goals
44′ Goalkeeper Aishi Manula looking like the man of the match already- he has made four saves already – in a really one sided affair
39′ Hussein sends a dangerous pass into the path of Andrew Vincent up front but his cross can’t find its mark
36′ Tanzania try to mount a late spell of pressure in a bid to steal a goal just before the break, but there’s no way through as John Bocco is punished for being in an offside position
30′ WHAT A MISS!!! Ahmed Musa squares up Victor Moses in the Tanzanian defence the Chelsea winger powers his chance over the cross bar even when he had only goalkeeper Aishi to beat. What a miss!
28′ Musa Muhammed gets into the referee’s book after a wreckless challenge on John Bocco. A chance for Taifa Stars to launch an attacking move
25′ In case you missed it, these are the line ups; Nigeria XI vs Tanzania: Ikeme; Mohammed, Balogun, Troost-Ekong, Echiejile; Mikel, Onazi; Musa, Moses, Iheanacho; Ighalo Tanzania XI vs Nigeria: Aishi, Kapombe, Hussein, V. Andrew, Mwantika, Himid Mao, Kichuya, Mkude, Msuva, Samatta, Bocco
22′ Tanzania have now grown into this game and it seems they are attacking more now with intent
21′ Great move from Iheanacho. He tries an attacking move but is brought down by Mwantika and the referee awards a freekick to the Super Eagles from a very scorable position
20′ The Super Eagles have made a bright start to the match and are asking many questions of the Tanzania defense…will the goal come through?
14′ Iheanacho manages to cross into the goal mouth. And Mikel Obi heads out of play. Not a bad start for the Super Eagles but they must make every chance count
13′ INCHES AWAY! Nigeria attack down that right hand side again, this time through Moses, who manufactures the space to shoot at goal but goalkeeper Aishi Manula makes a simple catch
10′ Musa’s lack of consistency is a big problem.His oscillation between excellence & mediocrity is really baffling. Never ending seemingly
4′ CLOSE!!!! A foul outside the box sees Victor Moses fouled outside the box and he steps up to take it …the Chelsea man misses target by inches
1′ KICK off…its a dead rubber game but it doesn’t mean we shouldn’t support the Super Eagles Nigeria XI vs Tanzania: Ikeme; Mohammed, Balogun, Troost-Ekong, Echiejile; Mikel, Onazi; Musa, Moses, Iheanacho; Ighalo
Tanzania XI vs Nigeria: Aishi, Kapombe, Hussein, V. Andrew, Mwantika, Himid Mao, Kichuya, Mkude, Msuva, Samatta, Bocco
