Nigeria's head coach Eric Chelle has alleged DR Congo were 'practising voodoo' during their penalty shoot-out victory over his side in a World Cup qualifier. DR Congo earned a 4-3 victory over Nigeria on penalties to win their African World Cup play-off final‚ a result which will see them advance to the intercontinental play-offs in March. The tie had ended in a 1-1 draw‚ leading to a shoot-out being required to separate the teams.
After African qualifying was wrapped up in the last international break in terms of the group phase‚ Cameroon had finished second in their group‚ four points behind first-time qualifiers Cape Verde. It meant they would face a play-off against a team from another group‚ and would take on DR Congo. They went into the game as heavy favourites‚ but suffered an agonising 1-0 defeat. Chancel Mbemba‚ formerly of Newcastle‚ scored the winner in stoppage time‚ triggering ecstatic scenes as Cameroon players fell to the ground.
