Nigeria vs Libya: Aina starts as Rohr sticks with usual suspects

Super Eagles gaffer Gernot Rohr has stuck with his winning team for the second leg of the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifier against Libya.

Hat-trick hero, Odion Ighalo, and Alex Iwobi will lead the attack just as they did in the 4-0 drubbing of the North Africans in the first game in Nigeria.

Similarly, Ahmed Musa will man the left flank of attack, while Samuel Kalu will line up on the right with Oghenekaro Etebo and Wilfred Ndidi taking familiar positions in the middle of the park.

Ola Aina, Torino full back, will start at right back in place of injured Shehu Abdullahi.
