id=\"article-123\">Nigeria has been dominating trends on social media following their elimination from the 2026 World Cup qualification play-offs.<\/p>\n<p>The Super Eagles started the World Cup playoff final with an impressive performance, scoring the first goal in the 3rd minute through Frank Onyeka.<\/p>\n<p>They continued to push for a second, but the resilience of the Congolese defense denied them the opportunity to score again.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ghanaweb.com\/GhanaHomePage\/SportsArchive\/Black-Stars-coach-Otto-Addo-enters-exclusive-FIFA-World-Cup-club-2009315\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Black Stars coach Otto Addo enters exclusive FIFA World Cup club<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The game shifted as the first half progressed, with DR Congo\u2019s Elia equalizing in the 32nd minute.<\/p>\n<p>The score remained unchanged after extra time, and DR Congo emerged victorious, winning 4-3 in the penalty shootout.<\/p>\n<p>This quickly drew wild reactions from Nigerians, many of whom were livid with the team\u2019s performance and their failure to qualify for the continental play-offs.<\/p>\n<p>Other aggrieved fans stated that the only consolation would be for the team to win the upcoming 2025 African Cup of Nations (AFCON) to make up for the disappointment.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, their fierce rivals, Ghanaians, were excited and trolled the Super Eagles for failing to qualify for the Mundial despite having top players like Osimhen, Lookman, and others in their squad.<\/p>\n<p>Some urged Nigeria to come to Ghana and study how the Black Stars prepare for such competitions.<\/p>\n<p>SB\/JE<\/p>\n<p>Read the readtions below:<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\" xml:lang=\"en\">Only those with sweet jollof will go to North
