CAN 2024: Nigeria opens the score and cools Ivory Coast
Ivory Coast and Nigeria find themselves in a clash on the second day of the group stage of this CAN 2024. And it is a high-stakes match that is looming between the offensive armada of the Super Eagles and the Elephants who evolve at home.
Nigeria comes up against Ivory Coast, the organizing country, after its disappointing entry into the running against Equatorial Guinea (1-1). Victor Osimhen and his teammates will have to show more efficiency in attack if they want to disturb the Elephants, who will have the Alassane Ouattara stadium behind them.
Opposite, the Ivorians will advance with the confidence accumulated during their first match against Guinea-Bissau, which ended in a 2-0 victory. It is a clash of giants that is expected between two of the favorites of this CAN 2024, the winner of which, if there is one, could seize first place in the group.
