The Nigeria U-20 national football team has ended their campaign at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) U-20 tournament with an impressive 4-0 victory over Tunisia.
Having been denied a chance for an unprecedented eight title by Gambia, the Flying Eagles came with full force in Friday’s third-place tie and simply blew the North Africans away.

Ibrahim Muhammed gave the Flying Eagles an early lead, scoring the opening goal just nine minutes into the game.
The Tunisians after the early setback kept the Flying Eagles at bay for the remainder of the first half.
However, Ahmed Abdullahi made it 2-0 in Nigeria’s favour shortly after the half-time break.
In the 49th minute, Jude Sunday joined the scoring spree with a fantastic solo goal to extend the Flying Eagles’ lead to 3-0.
The young midfielder put the icing on the cake with another sumptuous finish during the stoppage time to effectively seal Nigeria’s emphatic 4-0 victory.
