Ibrahim's tweet highlights the team's joy and relief at securing their place in the tournament, which will take place later this year in Morocco. The Black Meteors will be hoping to build on their success and also qualify for the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.
The team was led by FC Nordsjaelland forward Ernest Nuamah, who put in a standout performance in the win over Algeria.
Sporting CP Lisbon's Abdul Fatawu Issahaku scored the only goal in the reverse fixture, having also scored in the 1-1 draw in Algeria.
