Changchun Yatai of China of striker, Odion Ighalo netted a hat-trick for the Super Eagles, with Samuel Kalu scoring the other, his first international goal for Nigeria.

“It was a good performance from the Super Eagles against Libya. They fought really hard against a tough opposition and I want to commend them for their efforts,” Babangida told CSN.
“The Libyans gave us a good fight, but our players did well to weather the storm which was quite commendable.
