Match Report
Nigeria
took a step closer to becoming Africa Cup of Nations champions after
Ronwen Williams' late error gifted William Troost-Ekong a late winner in
a 2-1 triumph over South Africa in Wednesdays' quarter-final.
Bafana
Bafana, who shocked hosts Egypt in the previous round, had equalised
with 19 minutes remaining in Cairo when Bongani Zungu headed home and
the match was seemingly headed for extra-time.
But Troost-Ekong
bundled home in the 89th-minute minute after Williams made a hash of a
corner to dash South Africa's hopes of progressing and left Nigeria
still chasing their dream of a fourth AFCON title.
It was a just
result for a Nigeria team after they had largely dominated and led in
the 27th minute through Samuel Chukwueze, who was part of a lively
Nigeria front four that opened South Africa up several times
The
result extends South Africa's record of never having beaten Nigeria at
the Cup of Nations, while Gernot Rohr's men moved into the last four –
where Ivory Coast of Algeria await - with a disciplined, determined
performance.
