According to this article, Niger had seven substitutes, not six.

Therefore, Theodore should be added to the substitutes list.

Finally, FIFA recognizes Oman's May match as an official FIFA match.
Yes, but why do they do that? We have some very few games with too many substitutions that are full and official FIFA matches. But that FIFA uses a game for their rankings does not make it official. FIFA has done so many mistakes in the past, they clearly do not check all the subs in friendly games. So a game with seven subs can never be a an official FIFA game unless we have confirmation, and an inclusion in the rankings is not a confirmation.
So, if I were to add Theodore Jules in that game (Any opinions on this by other people?), that would make the game unofficial.
