Super Eagles hopes of qualifying for the world cup in the balance after One-all draw with Bafana Bafana

Super Eagles hopes of reaching a seventh FIFA World Cup tournament may after all be a mirage after they played out a 1-1 draw against South Africa who are topping the group.

The Super Eagles needed to pick up all three points to resurrect their dwindling hopes of reaching the world cup while the South Africans were hoping for a positive outcome in a bid to retain their top position in Group C.

At the end of ninety minutes both sides shared the spoils at the Free State Stadium in Bloemfontein. 

As it stands, South Africa currently has 17 points from eight games, six points clear of Nigeria, who have 11 points from the same number of matches played.

The Super Eagles must win their remaining matches against Lesotho and Benin Republic and also hope others in the group drop points, to have a shot at qualification for the Mundial.
