Super Eagles zooms to Brazil 2014

Nigeria became the first African side to qualify for the 2014 World Cup after beating Ethiopia 2-0 in Calabar on Saturday.


Goals from Liverpool's Victor Moses and Lokomotiv Moscow's Victor Obinna Nsofor sealed a comfortable victory and a 4-1 aggregate win for the West African side.

Moses converted from the penalty spot after Aynalem Hailu was harshly adjudged to have handled in the area.

Substitute Obinna cemented victory when his long-range free-kick deceived Sisay Bancha in the Ethiopia goal.

Super Eagles gaffer , Stephen Okechukwu Keshi aka Big Boss also became the first African coach to qualify two different countries (Togo and Nigeria) to the FIFA World Cup.
