The Super Eagles of Nigeria have qualified for the round of 16 at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations after edging Guinea-Bissau 1-0 in their final Group A game.

An own goal by Opa Sangante in the first half was enough to seal qualification for Jose Peseiro’s men.

The result means the Super Eagles qualify second on seven points behind Equatorial Guinea, who top on superior goals scored.

Equatorial Guinea produced one of the shocks in AFCON history as they thrashed Côte d’Ivoire 4-0 in the other game.

The Ivorians will now have to wait to see if they will qualify as one of the third best placed teams.
