Nigeria are now through to the semi-finals of the continental championships after goals from Samuel Chukwueze and William Troost-Ekong condemned South Africa to a quarterfinal exit.
It was Chukwueze’s first senior goal for Nigeria while Troost-Ekong also got his first ever AFCON goal on a memorable night for the Super Eagles and their fans worldwide.
The moment the Super Eagles did the nation proud…
… Driven by the energy and talent of an eagle on the rise
…and some silent heroes whose contributions were also massive.
The team’s official Number One fan, President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, was proud and grateful for their efforts.
Former Vice President, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, has sent in his well wishes.
Kanu Nwankwo, arguably Nigeria’s greatest ever footballer, was on ground in Egypt to cheer on the team.
More Living Legends continue to celebrate the Eagles
The star performer of the night!
CAF are not joking….
The Spanish La Liga recognises a Nigerian star when it sees one…
Villarreal CF is glad that he is one of their own….
To Super Eagles supporters, the victory means the world……
