It’s all square at halftime in the Flying Eagles’ crucial final Group B match at the 2025 U-20 Africa Cup of Nations, with Nigeria and Kenya tied 1-1 after a lively opening 45 minutes in Cairo.
Kenya took an early lead in the 6th minute through a confidently converted penalty by Wanganya K., but Nigeria responded just seven minutes later as Kparobo Arierhi slotted home to bring the Flying Eagles back on level terms in the 13th minute.
In the other simultaneous Group B match, Morocco lead Tunisia 1-0 at halftime, a result that could significantly impact the final standings. With both games finely poised, the race for knockout qualification remains wide open as teams head into the final half of group-stage action.
The Flying Eagles will need a focused second-half performance to secure their place in the next round, with their destiny still in their hands
