The Nigerian Flying Eagles are set to face the Togolese Sparrow Hawks as they seek a spot in the semi-finals of the WAFU B U-20 Championship. This Group B match is scheduled for Thursday at the Barry Konan Stadium in Yamoussoukro.
Nigeria enters the contest following a strong 4-2 opening performance against Ghana. A victory in this game guarantees the reigning champions a place in the next round. Conversely, Togo is fighting to remain in the tournament after falling 3-1 to Burkina Faso in their first match.
In the group’s other match, Burkina Faso will compete against the Ghanaian Black Satellites. The top two teams from this tournament will earn qualification for the upcoming Africa U-20 Cup of Nations, which is being held in Ghana.
