Nigeria vs Cape Verde WAFU Cup of Nations clash at the Stade Lat Dior in Thies, Senegal, on Saturday, October 5, saw Super Eagles fall 3-2 to the Blue Sharks during penalty shoot-out after regulation time ended 1-1.
The encounter saw Nigeria dominate ball possession in the first 45 minutes, but were finding it hard to create meaningful chances to break the deadlock, no thanks to inaccurate passing of the ball going forward.

The Super Eagles did not trouble the Blue Sharks defence until Williams Ukeme’s strike from 24 yards in the 30th minute, but his effort failed to reach the target.

On the other end, Cape Verde could not see much of the ball until the closing moments of the half.
Erickson Soares after getting past the Eagles defence line executed a poor finish from 14-yard straight into the shot-stopper’s hand.

Minutes later, Aires Fernandes saw his strike miss target by inches after getting to the end of a loose ball, to see the scoreboard read Nigeria 0-0 Cape Verde at the break.
