‎Confirmed: Nigeria to Take on Mozambique in AFCON Round of 16

The Super Eagles of Nigeria will take on Mozambique in the round of 16 at the ongoing Africa Cup of Nations on Monday.
‎
‎Mozambique finished third in their group despite losing 1-2 to Cameroon in their last group game, but picked up one of the four slots available to the best placed third teams in the tournament.
‎
‎After achieving this feat, they will now keep a date with Nigerian team in the round of 16.
‎
‎The Super Eagles will go into the game with a 100 percent record after winning all of their group games at the tournament.
‎
‎The Nigerian team who have scored eight goals, the most in the tournament, have also shown their vulnerability in defence with four goals conceded and yet to register a clean sheet.
‎
‎Meanwhile, Head coach of the Nigerian team Eric Chelle has a clear mandate to lead the team to the final, where they are expected to go a step further than last time out when they were runners up to the host Cote d’Ivoire.
