Nigeria played out scoreless draw against Mozambique as the Super Eagles started their final phase of the 2010 World Cup qualifying campaign, dpa reported.

The 0-0 scoreline against the Mambas will renew fears that Nigeria could miss out on qualification for the 2010 World Cup finals in South Africa, just as they failed to make it to the 2006 finals in Germany.

Unheralded Angola pipped the Eagles to Germany and now Mozambique, ranked 93rd in the world, have ensured an uncertain start to Nigeria's campaign in Group B thanks to the result at the Estadio Machava in Maputo.

Nigeria eased through the previous phase of the 2010 qualifiers, winning all their games against hosts South Africa, Sierra Leone and Equatorial Guinea.
