Bosnia Herzegovina's hope of progressing to the next round of the World Cup was dashed after losing to a 1-0 defeat by African champions Nigeria in Cuiaba, Brazil.
Osaze Odemwingie's lone goal secured all 3 points for the Eagles which is also Nigeria’s first win at a World Cup finals since 1998.
The super Eagles are however favourites to join Argentina in the second round. Argentina are on six points after beating Iran 1-0 earlier on Saturday to leave the Iranians on a point while the Nigerians are on four points.
Nigeria play Argentina in their final group F game on Thursday — the Africans lost 2-1 on the previous occasion they played the South American side in the group stage in the 1994 finals
