Nigeria’s Super Eagles booked a place in the Round of 16 at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations after outscoring Tunisia 3-2 in a five-goal thriller at Fez Stadium on Saturday.
The Super Eagles were cruising to victory when leading 3-0 through goals from Osimhen, captain Wilfred Ndidi and Ademola Lookman.
Tunisia refused to surrender in the top-of-the-table Group C clash and Montassar Talbi and Ali Abdi scored to set up a tense finish.
Nigeria have six points, Tunisia three and Tanzania and Uganda one each with the final round of group matches set for Tuesday.
The showdown was the seventh time the Super Eagles and the Carthage Eagles had faced each other at an AFCON.
Nigeria won three times and Tunisia once. Another two meetings went to penalty shootouts with each nation winning one.
