Head coach of the Super Eagles, Sunday Oliseh, has lavished praise on Swaziland, after they gave his team a tough time in their World Cup qualifier on Tuesday.
Nigeria needed two second-half goals, to overcome Swaziland who are ranked 130th in the world by FIFA.
“For a fact, Swaziland’s FIFA ranking is totally not justified. We should congratulate them. They posed us a lot of problems, they were always compact and resilence. They played with their hearts over the two legs and made things pretty difficult for us,” Oliseh admitted.
“If I got a chance to play a friendly in the future I will invite Swaziland.”
The Eagles will join 19 other African countries like Cote d’Ivoire, Ghana, Cameroon, Egypt, Mali, Senegal, South Africa and Algeria in the group phase of the qualifiers.
