Super Eagles dominate Indomitable Lions 2-0, meet Angola in AFCON q’finals
The Super Eagles on Saturday progressed to the quarter-finals of the ongoing Africa Cup of Nations after a 2-0 win over Cameroon’s Indomitable Lions at the Felix Houphouet Boigny Stadium in Ivory Coast on Saturday, Sunday PUNCH reports.
With the win, Nigeria will now play Angola in the quarter-finals February 2, as they hope to claim a fourth continental title after previous wins in 1980, 1994 and 2013.
It was a blockbuster clash that had generated reviews as the old rivals squared off yet again at the continental showpiece, but it was the Nigerians who made short work of their eastern neighbours with a comfortable victory in Abidjan.
The Indomitable Lions had the first attempt, with Moumi Ngamaleu sending an early effort wide inside the box in the third minute.
