In an international friendly held in Russia, Super Eagles forward Akor Adams scored a dramatic equaliser in the 90+4th minute, helping Nigeria secure a 3-3 draw after trailing 3-1. The match began positively for Nigeria, who took an early lead within the first 15 minutes.

However, Russia equalised in the 30th minute and gained momentum, scoring twice in the second half to establish a 3-1 lead. Nigeria made two substitutions at halftime, bringing in Adams and Abubakar Umar, but initially struggled to regain control.
