Omeruo Nods Home Winner as Super Eagles Head Into Round of 16

Super Eagles keep their 100 percent record in the Total Africa Cup of Nations with a slim 1-0 victory over the Syli Nationals of Guinea in Alexandria Egypt.

After an unimpressive first half from the men in green and white that saw some selfish and non-enterprising play from the likes of Odion Ighalo and Alex Iwobi.

The three time African Champions finally have the breakthrough with 16 minutes left in the second half when Moses Simon whips a beautiful cross from the corner to the path of Kenneth Omeruo who heads home his first ever goal for Super Eagles.

Combination between the two players who ply their trades in Spain was enough to seal a another three points for the Super Eagles as they become the first to book a place in the Round of 16 with a game to spare.
