Nigerian and Napoli forward, Victor Osimhen

Nigeria striker, Victor Osimhen, is on the verge of a one-match ban before Sunday’s 2026 World Cup playoff final against DR Congo due to a booking in the semi-final win over Gabon.

Osimhen received a yellow card for pulling off his shirt in celebration of his goal in extra time, and if he gets another caution on Sunday, he will be suspended for the intercontinental playoff if the Super Eagles qualify.

Vice-captain Wilfred Ndidi is already ruled out for the DR Congo match after picking up a booking against Gabon, adding to the Super Eagles’ concerns ahead of the big game.
