Keyamo Spurs Super Eagles to Aim Higher After Cameroon Triumph in AFCON Clash

In a thrilling AFCON showdown, Super Eagles secure victory against Cameroon, but Minister Keyamo urges them to keep their eyes on the ultimate prize.

The Stade Félix Houphouët-Boigny in Abidjan witnessed a gripping clash between Nigeria and Cameroon on Saturday, January 27, 2024. The Super Eagles emerged victorious with a 2-0 win, earning them a spot in the quarter-finals against Angola, who triumphed over Namibia.

Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, took to his X (formerly Twitter) account to commend the team on their performance. He acknowledged Nigeria’s superiority on current form but emphasized that the job was far from complete.

“On current form, we were actually better than Cameroon. It’s just that it was CAMEROON, the age-long ‘enemy,’ so it got all of us on the edge of our seats! Congratulations, Super Eagles, but the job is not done yet. Keep your feet firmly on the ground until you bring the ultimate prize home!” Keyamo’s tweet conveyed.

The match unfolded with early drama as Semi Ajayi’s goal was disallowed by VAR, adding to the tension. However, undeterred, the Super Eagles pressed on, and in the 36th minute, Victor Osimhen set up Ademola Lookman, who found the net, securing the lead.

Despite Cameroon’s efforts to level the score, the well-organized Nigerian defense held firm. The Eagles continued to create opportunities, with Ola Aina missing a chance in the 84th minute before Lookman sealed the victory with a second goal in the 90th minute.

As Nigeria advances to the quarter-finals, they are set to face Angola in a grudge match on Friday, February 2, 2024. Keyamo’s call for the team to remain focused echoes the sentiment that, despite the triumph over Cameroon, the quest for the fourth AFCON title demands unwavering commitment from the Super Eagles.
