CHAN 2014: Debutant Nigeria Super Eagles Clinch Bronze.

The Nigeria Super Eagles this afternoon defeated their Zimbabwean opponents 1-0 in a game played in Cape Town to clinch bronze medals in the CAF African championship which ended today in South Africa.

The game saw a Zimbabwean midfielder sent off in the first half after a dangerous tackle on Nigerian keeper. Even though the Nigerians played against a 10 man Zimbabwean side for most part of the match, the Eagles found it difficult to find the back of the net.

The winning goal came from the foot of Chinonso Obiozor in 82nd minutes,  giving the Nigerians a deserved victory.
