Hello! Friends,

Sorry this news come late after like 10 hours the game has been completed but again its still a news to some of us due to a record that a player made after the completion of the game.

The Super Eagle of Nigeria entered the field of play yesterday to faced Tunisia in the third and fourth place ongoing AFCON2019. The game was with John Mikel Obi and started with determination from both countries though the were not happy due to their loss to Algeria and denied them of the Finals which should have been between them and Senegal.

The started with an early goal from Igalo who hit the net in the first 3 minutes into the game to record his 5th goals in a single Africa Cup of Nation tournament to place himself side by side with the ever best Nigeria striker Rashidi Yekini. According to the record, it was only Rashidi Yekini that has recorded 5 goals in a single Africa Cup of Nation. This is a plus for Igalo has he made the record to decide the only goal to positioned the Eagle for AFCON2019 third place.

There was nothing special about the game as the Eagle ball possession was not really encouraging but the early goal was what keep them going and the only thing I will say is, its cool that they were able to defend the only goal till the end of the match.

The match ended with only goal from Ighalo and the Eagle was crowned the 2nd runner up for AFCON2019.

The final match between Senegal and Algeria will be on Friday. Be expectant.
