Super Eagles
Nigeria ousted holders and bitter rivals Cameroon from the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) on Saturday and will play quarter final against South Africa who shocked hosts Egypt with a lone goal victory.
Nigeria scored twice in three minutes to come from behind and win a thrilling last-16 match 3-2 in Alexandria.
Odion Ighalo gave Nigeria a 19th minute lead, but Cameroon hit back with two goals in quick succession before half-time from Stephane Bahoken and Clinton Njie to take a 2-1 lead.
Ighalo levelled again for Nigeria in the 63rd minute, before Alex Iwobi snatched the winner for the jubilant Super Eagles three minutes later.
The win earned Nigeria a quarter-final place against hosts Egypt on Wednesday.
