Nigeria has been knocked out of the U-20 WAFU Cup being held
in the Benin Republic after Cote d’Ivoire beat Ghana 1-0 on Saturday.
The Flying Eagles needed Ghana to beat Cote d’Ivoire by, at
least, a two-goal margin on Saturday to have a chance of qualifying for the
WAFU Cup last four.
Failure to advance in the WAFU Cup means the Eagles cannot
be eligible to participate in the 2021 U-20 Africa Cup of Nations and the FIFA
U-20 World Cup.
The team finished with one point from two games in the group
stages, drawing 1-1 with Cote d’Ivoire and losing 1-0 to Ghana.
