Why This Matters

Paul Onuachu was one of those back-up players who was drafted into the starting XI and he opened the scoring from close range just before the half hour mark. Then it was all about Raphael Onyedika — two superb second-half finishes from the midfielder put Nigeria in a commanding position and set them up for a third win in a row. There was a well-taken consolation goal from Rogers Mato, but it was the Nigerians who picked the win and continued their momentum heading into the knockouts.

This is the kind of move that can define a season.

The Bottom Line

There was a well-taken consolation goal from Rogers Mato, but it was the Nigerians who picked the win and continued their momentum heading into the knockouts.
