AFCON 2025: Nigeria Beat Algeria, Qualify For Semi-Final

332

Nigeria beat Algeria 2-0 on Saturday evening, to qualify for the semi-finals of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.

The Super Eagles came into the game having not lost a single game at the tournament.

And they dominated the Desert Foxes for most of the first half, although they failed to score.

The breakthrough came in the second half when Victor Osimhen powered home a header to put Nigeria ahead.

The Eagles continued to dominate, and Akor Adams added a second goal after an assist from Osimhen, securing a comfortable lead.

Algeria made substitutions to try and turn the match around, but Nigeria’s defence and composure kept them in control until the final whistle.

The Super Eagles now advance to the semi-finals, where they will face hosts Morocco.
