Nigeria VS SouthAfrica

*Nigeria 🆚 South Africa: Troost-Ekong Scores 🎊Winner as Super Eagles Beat Bafana Bafana 2⃣-1⃣*

Nigeria vs South Africa ended in a 2-1 win in favour of the Super Eagles as Gernot Rohr's men made it through to the semi finals.

The match started on a slow pace as both sides carefully built their confidence in the opening exchanges of the game. But the Super Eagles quickly got into their strides as they started creating scoring chances as the game progressed

And the pressure finally paid off as Ahmed Musa combined with Alex Iwobi who took on a defender before setting up on rushing Samuel Chukwueze in the box.

The Villarreal star played a first time shot which was initially blocked but stirred the ball into the net on his second attempt to make it 1-0. The 19-year-old dribbled his way into South Africa's penalty area in the 36th minute but a timely intervention from Dean Furman saved Bafana Bafana's blushes. Nigeria went into the break the happier side and the more confident side as the South African had their tails between their legs.
