In
the last group game of Group A in the ongoing WAFU Cup of Nations Nigeria’s
home-based Eagles defeated hosts Ghana 2-0 to qualify for the semi-finals. Goals
from Anthony Okpotu and Peter Eneji gave the Eagles their first
group win.
Okpotu
opened scoring for Nigeria in the 52nd minute after neatly beating his marker
inside the box off a brilliant through pass from Eneji before slotting past the
Ghana keeper. In the 55th minute, Eneji doubled Nigeria’s lead after slamming
in a superb left-foot strike from the edge of the box following a cross from Chima Akas.
With
the win, the home-based Eagles finished second in Group A on five points
while Ghana, who have already qualified, finish top on six points.
