Guinea-Bissau edges Nigeria; Rwanda tops Cape Verde
Guinea-Bissau stunned Nigeria with a 4-0 victory in the Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers for 2027, securing their second win and sending a strong message about their qualification prospects. Franco Lino scored the opening goal after 15 minutes, multiplied the lead with a goal from Mamy Baldé, and Álvaro Djaló completed the scoring in stoppage time. Nigeria, who began the qualifiers with a win over Madagascar, couldn't replicate that success against Guinea-Bissau, complicating their chances of qualification, as only the highest-ranked team outside the host nations advances. Guinea-Bissau, on the other hand, clung to their hopes with their second consecutive win in Group B.
