CHAN 2024: Super Eagles B crash out after 4-0 defeat to Sudan
@Source: businessday.ng
Nigeria’s Super Eagles B, coached by Eric Chelle, have been knocked out of the 2024 African Nations Championship (CHAN) following a 4-0 defeat to Sudan in their second Group D match in Zanzibar on Tuesday. The loss, coming just a week after a 1-0 defeat to defending champions Senegal, sealed Nigeria’s early exit from the tournament regardless of the result in their final group game against Congo in Dar es Salaam next Tuesday. The defeat matches Nigeria’s joint-worst result in the 26-year history of the competition, equalling the 4-0 loss to hosts Morocco in the 2018 final. Needing a win to stay in contention, the Super Eagles B were outclassed from start to finish by a clinical Sudanese side. Nigeria had a first-half goal ruled out for offside before an own goal and a strike from Walieldin Kedir put Sudan 2-0 ahead before the break. In the second half, Sudan added two more goals, with Omer capping the rout by blasting a stunning effort off the underside of the crossbar into the net, leaving goalkeeper Mustapha helpless.
