todayMarch 18, 2026 9

Background
share close

The Nigeria Football Federation has begun an appeal after losing its petition against the Democratic Republic of Congo over player eligibility in the 2026 World Cup play-off.

The federation confirmed that the FIFA Disciplinary Committee dismissed its complaint, which challenged the eligibility of some Congolese players fielded in the match played in Rabat, Morocco, last November.

In a statement, NFF General Secretary, Mohammed Sanusi, said the body is not satisfied with the decision and has moved swiftly to contest the ruling.

The federation maintained that it will pursue the appeal process in a bid to overturn the verdict.
