The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has made a ruling regarding the abandoned 2025 African Cup of Nations qualifier between Libya and Nigeria. Following an incident where the Nigerian Super Eagles were reportedly held against their will by Libyan authorities, CAF awarded Nigeria the victory, granting them three points and three goals for the match.
Libya was found in violation of Article 31 of AFCON regulations, leading CAF to impose a $50,000 fine on the country. Journalist Osasu Obayiuwana shared the details on his social media, noting that CAF's decision underscores the severity of Libya's breach of AFCON’s regulations.
