After raising the hopes of millions of Nigeria with a morale boosting 0-2 win over Congo last weekend, the Super Eagles broke the hearts of many as they struggled to a 2-2 draw against South Africa.
The one point gotten by the reigning champions was inadequate as Nigeria will not be at Equatorial Guinea 2015. Tekelo Rantie was the hero for the South Africa as he scored two goals one in each half to extinguish the hopes of Nigeria going on to defend the title they won in 2013 in South Africa.
While Nigeria did pull level through two goals from Sone Aluko it was too little too late for Nigeria to get the needed victory that could have helped their qualification quest.
