However, joy turned sour for Nigerians as Jodel Dossou benefited from a defensive blunder and calmly slotted the ball past the onrushing Stanley Nwabali to tie the game 1-1.
Finidi Steve Mounie’s right-footed goal from a corner shortly before halftime exposed George’s tactical error once more.
Despite the arrival of Victor Boniface, Paul Onuachu, and Ibrahim Olawoyin, the Super Eagles were helpless in the final third and transition.
The Eagles are fifth in the qualification group with three points from four games.
