The Super Eagles of Nigeria will clash with the Elephants of Cote D’Ivoire on Sunday in the final of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON).
This comes after both teams defeated their opponents in their respective semi-final fixtures to set up a date in the final.
Recall Cote D’Ivoire and Nigeria had earlier met in the group stage of the competition with Super Eagles triumphing over the hosts 1-0.
It was a massive turnaround for the host, who looked likely to be eliminated after the group stage and had fired their coach Jean-Louis Gasset, only to sneak into the knockouts and make it all the way to the decisive game of the Cup of Nations tournament.
The final match will take place at the Alassane Ouattara Stadium in Ebimpe on Sunday, Febuary 11, 2023.
