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.

We watched match of African Nations Championship and we saw one sided match between these two teams as one team did 2 goals in this match and opponent team could not do any goal in this match. Yusuf was a person who did first goal of the match and he did this goal at 56 minutes and we saw no goal in the first half of the match. Congo national football team could not do any goal in this match and shots of that team were less in this match which were only 10 in this match and no shot was on target. The possession percentage of Congo national football team was very low in this match which was 42 percent and passes of that team were also less in number and these were only 264 .The pass accuracy of Nigeria national football team was brilliant in this match which was 71 percent.
