The quarter-final stage of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations unfolded in Abidjan on Friday evening, featuring a clash between Nigeria and Angola. The Super Eagles emerged victorious with a 1-0 win, securing their place in the semi-finals.
Nigeria showcased defensive solidity with their fourth consecutive clean sheet, laying a foundation for success despite possessing a squad filled with some of the best attacking talents, including Victor Osimhen. Ademola Lookman, who also played a pivotal role in the round of 16, once again proved crucial by scoring the only goal of the game in the first half.
Although Osimhen found the back of the net, his goal was disallowed for offside. Angola, on the other hand, struggled to mount a significant late equalizer threat. The Super Eagles will now face either South Africa or Cabo Verde in the semi-finals, setting the stage for another exciting chapter in their Afcon journey.
