Ademola Lookman and Victor Osimhen stole the headlines for Nigeria in their win against Benin on the weekend, but more will be required to make it through the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers successfully.

Nigeria striker Ademola Lookman continued his outstanding year with two goals to help his country to a 3-0 home win over neighbours Benin in their opening 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier on Saturday.

The major talking points, the fixtures to watch, and some of the new faces set to earn their first caps.
