The Nigerian football community has turned the recent detention of the Super Eagles in Libya into a viral sensation with a mock movie cover titled ‘Stranded in Libya’, Soccernet.ng reports.

The artwork which mimics a film poster spotlights the recent saga where Nigeria’s national team was stranded at Al Abraq airport due to unclear circumstances.

With the tagline “Eagles caged in Libya, released? Watch out!”, the mock cover humorously presents the ordeal as a suspenseful drama, with players like William Troost-Ekong, Chidera Ejuke, Calvin Bassey at the center of the design.

The cover, which has been circulating online, is a playful reminder of the difficulties faced by the Super Eagles as they navigated an unexpected situation during their AFCON 2025 qualifiers.

The artwork reflects the tense moments and frustrations felt by the Nigerian football fans as they awaited updates on the team’s safe return.

This viral response comes after CAF postponed the Nigeria vs Libya qualifier, as investigations continue into the circumstances that led to the team’s detainment at the airport.

The incident has sparked global reactions, with many questioning the handling of the situation by Libyan officials.

The image has quickly gained traction on social media, with many Nigerians sharing it as a light-hearted take on what was otherwise a stressful situation for the team and its supporters.
