Nigeria edge out Ivory Coast by superior display with a goal magine
Although not a glittering display, Nigeria’s work rate left Ivory Coast chasing shadows.
Osimhen was alone in attack for the most part, so on that alone, he perhaps deserved the credit.
The African player of the year also had the first chance of the match but blazed over from a tight angle while under pressure.
Osimhen also won the penalty for Troost-Ekong to convert.
