The home-based Super Eagles yesterday sealed their qualification for African Nations Championship (CHAN) after holding Burkina Faso to a goalless draw in Ouagadougou.

The Super Eagles won the leg 2-0 at the Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium in Port Harcourt a fortnight ago and held for the draw on Sunday, October 25 to qualify on 2-0 aggregate.

The Burkinabes dominated the game on Sunday as the Super Eagles sat back with their 2-0 lead in mind.

The host had the chance to put pressure on the Super Eagles after a penalty was awarded to them, but a Burkina Faso player could not convert.

This will be Nigeria’s second appearance at the biennial football showpiece.
