Nigeria delivers without shining
Nigeria did not necessarily need its talent too much, nor even to accelerate to dominate a combative but limited Guinea-Bissau (1-0) and ensure qualification for the round of 16, as second in group A behind Equatorial Guinea.
Very sluggish in the first period, the Super Eagles took advantage of a spectacular csc from Dunkirk defender (L2) Opa Sangnate, on a cross from Nantes striker Moses Simon (37th). And so they were content with that. Because as since the start of this CAN where he only scored one goal, Osimhen was once again clumsy, particularly with his head (45th+4, 78th). Guinea-Bissau, eliminated as last in Group A with zero points, was only really threatening on a free kick from Messin’s Fali Candé, repelled by Nwabali (84th).
