Nigeria’s Super Eagles are bidding for a place in the AFCON 2025 semi-finals as they face the Desert Foxes of Algeria in Marrakech. The Eagles enter the match after a commanding 4-0 win over Mozambique in the Round of 16, having scored 12 goals in four matches—the tournament’s most prolific attack.
Algeria, unbeaten in the tournament so far, boasts the tightest defence, conceding just one goal in four matches. Captain Riyad Mahrez leads their attack, supported by goalkeeper Luca Zidane, who has kept multiple clean sheets.
Super Eagles XI:
Nwabali; Osayi, Ndidi (c), Ajayi; Lookman, Onyeeka, Bruno, Iwobi, Calvin; Osimhen, Akor
