Nigeria U17 v Uganda U17 Match Report, 20/04/2019

Nigeria U17 have qualified for the Fifa U17 World Cup after holding Uganda U17 to a 1-1 stalemate at the Chamazi Stadium to progress to the semi-finals of the U17 Africa Cup of Nations.

Ahead of the Saturday's match, either of the teams in Group A had a chance of going through but Nigeria held on to finish atop the log after Ibraheem Jabaar's equaliser saw them dump the Cecafa champions out of the competition.

Olakunle Olusegun paid the price for his wastefulness in Angola 1-0 win, with Jabaar taking his spot in attack.
