Nigeria’s Super Eagles have failed to make it the the final of the 2019 African Cup of Nations (AFCON) after a nail-bitting 2-1 defeat to the Les Fennecs of Algeria at the Cairo International Stadium in the second semi final clash on Sunday.



Head coach Gernot Rohr made no changes as he started the same squad that he fielded in the 2-1 victory over the Bafana Bafana of South Africa in the quarter final. The Super Eagles going into the game, were yet to lose to the Desert Foxes since 1990 and they were looking to extend the run in Cairo.
