Victor Osimhen extinguished Benin's hopes in this blockbuster clash on matchday 10 of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. The Nigerian star bags a hat-trick.

Back from the break, Nigeria kept schooling their neighbors Benin on the pitch. From a free kick and once again with a header, Victor Osimhen completed his hat-trick in the 51st minute (3-0).

Barring a miracle, Benin will not be at the 2026 World Cup.
