AFCON: Super Eagles Beat Sudan 3-1, Qualify For Knockout Stages

Super Eagles have beaten Sudan 3-1 to qualify for the knockout stages.

Glamtush reports that Nigeria’s Super Eagles are through to the knockout stages of the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations, following a 3-1 win over Sudan on Saturday.

The Super Eagles had beaten Egypt 1-0 in their first Group D fixture.

Samue Chukwueze opened scoring three minutes into the game, stroking home from a Moses Simon pass.

Taiwo Awoniyi got the second after a Troost-Ekong header bounced off the striker and beat the Sudanese goalkeeper who should have done better.

Moses Simon joined the goal-scoring party just after the second half began while Sudan got their consolation from the spot after Ola Aina fouled in the penalty box.
