AFCON 2025 qualifier: Libyan authorities hold Super Eagles hostage at Al Abaq airport


The Super Eagles were held hostage by Libyan authorities at the Al-Abaq Airport on Sunday night, DAILY POST reports.


According to the Super Eagles media officer, Promise Efoghe, the team’s chartered aircraft was approaching its destination in Benghazi before it was diverted to another city, more than a two-hour drive from the original base.

The players and their officials left Nigeria for the North African country on Sunday morning.


The Libyan players complained of poor treatment by Nigerian authorities on arrival in the West African country last week for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying matchday three encounter.

Nasser Al-Hadiri’s side lost the encounter 1-0, with Fisayo Dele-Bashiru scoring the decisive goal four minutes from time.

It's no surprise

The North Africans are living up to our expectations.... The usual North African antics


I hope the super eagles players will stay focused on the task before them and overlook thier antics.


I remember Enyimba beating them
2-0 in Aba but going to Morocco the venue was shifted. Ànd they were walked over


Rivers United case the they landed few hours before the kick off but the bus drivers took the round the city for over one hour until the referee walked them over and gave maximum points to them


Thank God this is not a 2 leg match.
Let super eagles forget European lives and be rugged to face them.

Isn't Libya still at war? I think they don't even have a formal leader. Why will caf allow this match to be played there and not at a neutral ground.
Re: AFCON 2025 Qualifier: Libyan Authorities Hold Super Eagles Hostage At Airport by Raxxye(m): 11:24pm On Oct 13, 2024
So it's tooth for tat!
But is it true that the Libyans were badly treated in Nigeria?

The nff said they didn't caused their diversion to port harcourt airport yet they still want to revenge in their country let's see if this their petty behaviour will make them defeat the super eagles.

Nothing in this story talks about HOSTAGE.

Rubbish headline for click bait.

They have started o shocked, that's North Africans for you.

It's either they annoyingly wasting time in games they feel they have advantage or they are being aggressive when at disadvantage.

Or they start playing mind games to frustrate your players just so they won't be in the right frame of mind to perform optimally in the game ahead.

The NFF should have prepared for this already, the history is there. No good administrator will overlook that.

Last last we'll still beat them in their backyard even with all these antics.
