Super Eagles rivals in 2025 AFCON Group C, Tanzania and Uganda, played out an entertaining 1-1 draw in Rabat.
And it was striker Uche Ikpeazu, whose father is Nigerian, who salvaged a draw for the Cranes of Uganda when he came off the bench.
He headed home a cross from the right late on after fellow East Africans Tanzania deservedly took the lead early in the second half from the penalty spot.
Uganda even had a chance to win maximum points in stoppage time only to waste it with a poorly taken penalty
Both teams now have a point each after two rounds of matches.
On final matchday Tuesday, Uganda tackle the Super Eagles, while Tanzania battle Tunisia.
