Sudan/Nigeria: Sudan Coach Appiah Surprised At Big Win Over Nigeria, Chelle - 'Worst Game I've Overseen'

Nigeria's home-based national team failed to score in two matches and conceded four goals to Sudan, marking their worst African Nations Championship performance, officials said.

  • On Tuesday, Nigeria's Super Eagles B were eliminated from CHAN after a 4-0 loss to Sudan in Zanzibar during 90 minutes of play.
  • Veteran Standard Group–Kenya journalist Ben Ahenda blamed Nigeria’s decline on a disconnect between grassroots talent and NPFL opportunities, amid decade-long club struggles, after Enyimba's only titles in 2003 and 2004.
  • Leonard Ngenge’s own goal opened the scoring for Sudan, followed by Walieldin Khidir’s penalty and Yagoub’s two second-half strikes.
  • As a result, Sudan climbed to the top of Group D, dumping Super Eagles B out with a game to spare.
  • Next week’s final games feature Senegal vs Sudan and Congo vs Nigeria in Dar es Salaam, where Nigeria will exit regardless of their match outcome.
