Lookman, Osimhen Shine as Nigeria Romp Into Cup of Nations Quarter ...
Nigeria scored four goals, including two by Victor Osimhen, to reach the Africa Cup of Nations quarterfinals, equaling their highest goal tally in a single AFCON campaign.
- The Super Eagles, in a rain-soaked Fès Sports Complex, beat Mozambique 4 to reach the AFCON quarterfinals on Monday.
- With inventive attacking play, the Super Eagles exploited Mozambique's exposed defense after right fullback Nanani's change and first-knockout nerves left gaps.
- Lookman set the tone by opening in the 20th minute from Adams' cross, Osimhen added two goals around half-time, and Adams sealed the win after the 64th minute.
- The Super Eagles now travel to Marrakesh on Saturday, with Coach Eric Chelle rotating the squad and substituting Osimhen to manage players ahead of the quarterfinal against Algeria or the Democratic Republic of Congo.
- The victory also means Nigeria have now scored 12 goals in the tournament, reinforcing their status as top scorers and bolstering title chances going into the Last Eight.
