Nigeria will not be at the 2022 World Cup, following a 1-1 draw with Ghana on Tuesday.

The Super Eagles failed to defeat the Black Stars in Kumasi, as they were only able to draw 0-0.

In the reverse leg played at the Moshood Abiola Stadium, the visitors took the lead through Thomas Partey.

The Arsenal midfielder saw his long-range effort squirm under Francis Uzoho to give Ghana the lead.
