Super Eagles beat Sudan 3-1, qualify for second round

The Super Eagles of Nigeria on Saturday booked a second round spot in the ongoing African Cup of Nations with a 3-1 win over Sudan holding in Cameroon.

The victory, the second in the group stage, is expected to ease whatever tension heading into the final group stage match against Guinea Bissau.
Samuel Chukwueze opened scoring three minutes into the game, stroking home from a Moses Simon pass.
Taiwo Awoniyi got the second after a Troost-Ekong header bounced off the striker and beat the Sudanese goalkeeper who should have done better.
Moses Simon joined the goal scoring party just after the second half began while Sudan got their consolation from the spot after Ola Aina fouled in the penalty box.
