Defending African champions Nigeria fell to a shock 1-0 defeat away to Sudan to slump to the bottom of Group A in African Cup of Nations qualifying.

The Super Eagles desperately needed a win to kick-start their campaign, after
suffering a shock home defeat by Congo Brazzaville and an away draw with South Africa in their opening Group A matches.

The result means that South Africa , who overcame Congo 2-0 in Atlantic city Pointe-Noire, go top of the standings, ending Congo's 100% record....
