Nigeria’s Depth Shines in Convincing Win Over Uganda

Nigeria delivered a strong message to their Africa Cup of Nations rivals with a confident 3–1 victory over Uganda, achieved with a heavily rotated squad. Head coach Eric Sékou Chelle will take particular satisfaction from the display, as it underlined the Super Eagles’ depth and attacking strength even without several regular starters. Midfielder Raphael Onyedika was the standout performer, producing a composed and commanding display capped by two well-taken goals. His influence in the centre of the pitch controlled the tempo and limited Uganda’s ability to build sustained attacks. Paul Onuachu also impressed, scoring Nigeria’s third goal and entering the history books as the 70th Nigerian player to score at the Africa Cup of Nations — more than any other nation has produced. Despite their dominance, Nigeria again showed a familiar weakness late on. With the game already won, they […]

Super Eagles stars one booking away from AFCON ban

Four key Super Eagles players risk suspension ahead Nigeria’s final AFCON 2025 Group C match against Uganda. Victor Osimhen, Ademola Lookman, Semi Ajayi and goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali are all one yellow card away from missing the Round of 16.​ If Osimhen is booked in the Uganda game, coach Eric Chelle may be forced to start Paul Onuachu as striker in the first knockout match. Lookman, who has scored in both of Nigeria’s games so far, would also be ruled out of the next round if he receives another caution.​ Ajayi’s card situation could push Chelle to adjust his back line, possibly turning to Zaidu Sanusi to keep the defence stable. Nwabali, cautioned for time wasting against Tunisia, would be replaced by Francis Uzoho if he picks up a second yellow card.​ Nigeria have already beaten Tanzania 2-1 and Tunisia 3-2, […]

Lyle Foster’s Value Goes Beyond Goals for Bafana

Lyle Foster played a central role in South Africa’s AFCON 2025 group-stage campaign, and his impact went far beyond the two goals and two assists he recorded across three matches. The Bafana Bafana striker consistently influenced games through his movement, pressing, and ability to bring teammates into play. Although he has often faced criticism for his finishing consistency, the group phase highlighted the broader value he brings to the national team’s attacking structure. One of the clearest examples came during South Africa’s dramatic 3-2 victory over Zimbabwe in Marrakesh. In the 58th minute, Foster held off pressure after receiving a pass from Oswin Appollis, recycled possession intelligently, and created space for Appollis to unleash a shot that forced a strong save from goalkeeper Washington Arubi. Throughout the tournament, Foster was heavily involved in South Africa’s build-up play, averaging two key […]

NFF agrees $30,000 Super Eagles bonus for AFCON 2025 Round of 16

The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has agreed to pay Super Eagles players $30,000 each for reaching the Round of 16 at AFCON Morocco 2025, doubling their initial $15,000 offer after the team's rejection. Bonuses for later rounds have also been settled with the players.​ The team has earned an additional $25,000 in goals bonuses, with $5,000 per goal across their five strikes in two matches, making them the tournament's top scorers so far. Under coach Eric Chelle, Nigeria shows attacking flair unlike the defensive style under Jose Peseiro at AFCON 2023, though they've conceded three goals without a clean sheet by Stanley Nwabali.​ This motivation comes as Super Eagles prepare for their final Group C match against Uganda after wins over Tanzania (2-1) and Tunisia (3-2).​

Emenike, Omeruo criticize Super Eagles defense, tactics at AFCON 2025

Former Nigeria stars Emmanuel Emenike and Kenneth Omeruo, both 2013 AFCON winners, highlighted defensive leaks and tactical issues in Super Eagles' campaign after conceding three goals in two group matches. Nigeria beat Tanzania 2-1 despite a lapse allowing Charles M’Mombwa's equalizer before Ademola Lookman's winner, then survived Tunisia's late comeback in a 3-2 victory with goals from Victor Osimhen, Wilfred Ndidi, and Lookman.​ Omeruo called the defense porous and urged coach Eric Sekou Chelle to fix it ahead of the Uganda clash tomorrow in Fes. He acknowledged the attack's strength but stressed stopping concessions is critical.​ Emenike demanded a clear game plan to maximize talents like Osimhen and Chukwueze, citing Tanzania's strategy exploiting Zaidu Sanusi. He praised Chelle but noted the team lacks defined roles compared to opponents.​

Super Eagles coach Eric Sekou Chelle urged his team to improve game management after their 3-2 win over Tunisia secured knockout qualification at AFCON Morocco 2025. Victor Osimhen scored just before halftime, with Wilfred Ndidi and Ademola Lookman adding goals post-break, before Tunisia's late fightback from Montassar Talbi and Ali Abdi. Nigeria faces Uganda next in group play.​ Chelle praised the team's intensity, aggression without the ball, and quick transitions but stressed learning to control matches until the final whistle. He noted small details matter at this level and commended the players' unity when momentum shifted.​ Man-of-the-Match Ademola Lookman highlighted the team's character, strong connections, and clear coaching instructions that enhance fluid play. Chelle believes these experiences build the team for deeper tournament runs.​

Gabon’s AFCON Hopes Hang on Mozambique Clash

Gabon’s Africa Cup of Nations campaign is already at a critical stage following their 1-0 loss to Cameroon in the opening match. With qualification hopes hanging in the balance, the Panthers face a must-win encounter against Mozambique in Agadir, a fixture that could determine whether they reach the knockout phase and extend Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s long and complicated AFCON journey. For Aubameyang, this tournament may represent one of the final chances to leave a lasting mark on Africa’s biggest football stage. Like many African greats before him who never lifted the trophy, the former African Footballer of the Year has endured a frustrating relationship with the competition. Comparisons with George Weah are often drawn, as both represented nations with limited continental pedigree, making AFCON glory an uphill task. Now competing in his sixth AFCON, Aubameyang’s history at the tournament has been […]

Chelle hints at tactical tweaks to Nigeria’s starting XI against Tunisia

Super Eagles head coach Eric Chelle has suggested he may adjust Nigeria’s tactics and starting XI for Saturday night’s Africa Cup of Nations clash with Tunisia in Fez, Morocco. The Malian coach said he is weighing two different approaches for the high stakes Group C fixture at the Fez Stadium.​ Speaking at his pre match press conference on Friday, Chelle explained that he is considering a shift away from his usual possession based style. He said one option is to allow Tunisia more of the ball and then attack quickly in transition when Nigeria wins possession.​ Chelle added that his other option is to stick with the team’s current philosophy but make some tweaks to better handle Tunisia’s strengths. He declined to reveal his starting XI, saying fans would see his final selection when the game kicks off.​ Nigeria go […]
