Nigeria had to settle for a 0-0 draw in
Ghana on Friday after VAR overruled a decision to award the visitors a penalty
in the first leg of a World Cup play-off.
A review of the decision in the closing
stages of the West African showdown in Kumasi found that Ghana midfielder
Iddrisu Baba was fouled before he handled the ball.
Ghana came closest to breaking the deadlock
with Nigerian goalkeeper Francis Uzoho pulling off a superb save to deny Fatahu
Ishaku in the first half.
The second leg of the game will take place
in Abuja on Tuesday.
