Captain of the Super Eagles, William Troost-Ekong, has reacted to the judgment handed down by the Confederation of African Football (CAF) regarding the Libyan national team.

It is important to recall that members of the Nigerian contingent were left stranded for approximately 20 hours upon their arrival at Al Abraq Airport for what was scheduled to be the reverse fixture of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualification clash.

In detailing its judgment on the incident, CAF awarded three points and three goals to the Nigerian team and fined Libya $50,000, while also stating that there would be no room for appeal regarding the incident.

Following CAF's announcement of the verdict, Troost-Ekong took to social media to share his thoughts on the decision.

On his X handle, he wrote:

“JUSTICE: CAF awards three points and three goals to Nigeria. Libya fined $50,000. Plane was diverted 300 km from the scheduled airport, even when the pilot informed them he was low on fuel. One step closer to our target, AFCON 2025 🇳🇬”

The defender's remarks have since sparked a wave of reactions among fans.
