It would have been a big shame for the Home based Super Eagles to lose all their three groups games. At least they can be proud that they won a game and also didn't finish at the bottom of Group D.

The match has ended and the scoreline is 2-0. Sadly they will not get $100,000, national award and flats in Abuja like the Super Falcons and D' Tigress.
The whole fun ended when Nigeria lost the two matches, everything was decided just after losing 3 points each with total of 6 points in Group stage of the tournament. Nigeria was down with 0 points but the two countries advancing already had 4 points on record, i least expected any good to come out from todays match against Congo, either winning or losing won't bring back the other points that was missed.
Nigeria isn't meant to be fighting not to end in last position, our target has always been finishing and advancing from first position or at our lowest second place, our progress to the next round of the tournament should have been a well deserved entry but we failed.
The day Nigeria lost their second match against Sudan, i knew it was over for Nigeria because if Nigeria won against Congo in their last match, Nigeria would not qualify for the next round of the competition because Nigeria would finish in 3rd position in their group, and it is only the countries that finish in 1st and 2nd positions are eligible to qualify for the next round of the competition. After Nigeria played two matches without collecting a point, and they were at the bottom of their group, i wanted to place a single bet option against Nigeria, but after Nigeria won against Congo, i thanked my star for not placing the bet.
