The Super Eagles complete their group stage in a clash of extremes against Uganda on Tuesday in Fez (Morocco), before starting things very seriously during the knockout phase. Victor Osimhen’s partners only need one point to secure their first place. Last with a point, the Ugandans have one last chance to grab a qualifying place, but will have to do well against one of the ogres of the tournament.
The Uganda-Nigeria match is scheduled to kick off at 5 p.m. this Tuesday, December 30. The meeting will be followed on television on beIN Sports 2.
