AFCON: Nigeria  Tackles Sudan Today 

Three-time African champions Nigeria will be seeking their second win at the on-going Africa Cup of Nations Cameroon 2021 when they take on Sudan’s Falcons of Jediane today at the Roumde Adjia Stadium in Garoua.

A few hours after Nigeria beat Egypt 1-0 to open their Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) campaign, the other two teams in Group D, Guinea-Bissau and Sudan played out a goalless draw to complete the first round of matches for that group.

With those results, the Super Eagles currently top Group D with three points, Sudan and Guinea Bissau have a point each while Egypt with no points are bottom of the group

This means that Nigeria may book a place in the round of sixteen if she wins the next game against the Falcons of Sudan and the result in the other fixture Egypt versus Guinea-Bissau is favourable.
