The Super Eagles won without trembling against Cameroon (2-0) with a double from Ademola Lookman. Led by a great Victor Osimhen, the Nigerians dominated the Indomitable Lions, who, notably, did not target a single shot in the match.
A little earlier, Angola defeated Namibia, who were playing their first round of 16 in the African Cup of Nations. The Brave Warriors were not unworthy, especially in the first period, against a better organized Angola team, while the two teams played with 10 men for a good part of the match. The Black Antelopes won 3-0, thanks to a double from Gelson Dala and a goal from Mabululu.
