Seven-time African champions, the Flying Eagles of Nigeria yesterday reached the semi-finals of the ongoing Under-20 Africa Cup of Nations after a hard-fought win over the Hippos of Uganda.
The Nigerian side defeated the Ugandan Hippos by a fortunate own goal scored by Ibrahim Juma as Ladan Bosso’s men booked a ticket to the 2023 FIFA Under-20 World Cup.
Goalkeeper Chijioke Aniagboso captained the Flying Eagles in the absence of suspended Daniel Bameyi providing another assured performance for the seven-time champions.
The Flying Eagles will take on the winner of the clash between Congo and Tunisia, happening today at the Cairo International Stadium.
