The Super Eagles of Nigeria secured a 2-1 win over Ghana in the semi-final of the 2025 Unity Cup, held at the Gtech Community Stadium in Brentford, London. The match saw Cyriel Dessers open the scoring in the 14th minute, followed by an own goal from Ghana’s Razak Simpson, giving Nigeria a two-goal lead by halftime.
Ghana’s Brandon Thomas-Asante pulled one back in the second half, but Nigeria held on to advance to the final.
The Unity Cup, featuring Nigeria, Ghana, Jamaica, and Trinidad and Tobago, is being hosted in London, celebrating the rich football heritage of these nations. Nigeria will face Jamaica in the final on Saturday, following Jamaica’s 3-2 victory over Trinidad and Tobago.
Dessers’ performance not only contributed to Nigeria’s win but also sparked discussions about his potential value in the transfer market. Fans have speculated that his recent form could increase his transfer value, with some suggesting a £1.5 million rise.
As the Super Eagles prepare for the final against Jamaica, the team aims to continue their strong performance and secure the Unity Cup title.
