FIFA has confirmed that Nigeria will host the Central African Republic at the Teslim Balogun Stadium in Lagos on October 10 in the qualifying matches for the 2022 World Cup double-header.
The world football governing body also said the reverse fixture will take place three days later at the Stade De Japoma, Douala, Cameroon.

Gernot Rohr and his men began their qualifying campaign with a 2-0 win against the Lone Star of Liberia last month.

Nigeria’s Super Eagles top Group C with six points from two games.
