CHAN 2016: Guinea eliminate Oliseh’s Eagles
The Syli
Nationale (Guinea) have eliminated Sunday Oliseh-tutored Super Eagles at the
ongoing CHAN 2016 in Rwanda.
The 1-0 victory
at Umuganda Stadium, Gisenyi ensured the Guineans progress while the Eagles
will play no more part in the tournament.
Bangoura’s boys
had their chance to take the lead as Daouda Camara ease past the Nigeria’s
defence to lay an assist for Ibrahim Sankhon who slotted in to an empty net.
Ibrahim
Sankhon’s goal for Guinea ended an embarrassing first half for Sunday Oliseh’s
boys.
Coach Sunday
Oliseh was forced to make an early substitution in the second half with the
introduction of the team’s topscorer Chisom Chikatara for Paul Onobi in a move
to get the desired result.
The Syli
Nationale held on to their lead as they played more defensive with little
attacking threat but the Super Eagles couldn’t break through as they lack
creativity.
FC Ifeanyi
Ubah’s Bright Onyedikachi who came on for Tunde Adeniji in the second half came
closer to get an equalizer for the Super Eagles but saw his effort parred off
by the goalkeeper.
The Super Eagles
were unable to grab an equalizer before the end of regular time to savour a
point for qualification as they finished in the third position behind with
4points behind leader Tunisia with 5points and Guinea 5points.
