Nigeria's football federation has filed a complaint with FIFA alleging that DR Congo fielded ineligible players in their recent CAF playoff final. The petition claims fraud in the nationality changes of several players, threatening DR Congo's World Cup qualification hopes. DR Congo has dismissed the challenge as sour grapes from a bad loser.
Nigeria's National Sports Commission chairman Shehu Dikko has described the country's FIFA complaint over DR Congo players' eligibility as 'very tight', stressing its legal basis amid review following the Super Eagles' playoff penalty loss. DR Congo dismisses it as backdoor tactics.
