Super Eagles Soar for Quarters: Can Perfect-Record Nigeria Crush Historic Mozambique in Fez? ⚔️
Fez's Complexe Sportif hosts a lopsided AFCON 2025 Round of 16 tie as group winners Nigeria face historic underdogs Mozambique. The Super Eagles topped Group C with a perfect 9 points and 100% record – the first team to advance. The Mambas reached knockouts for the first time ever as best third-placed, thanks to their maiden AFCON win over Gabon. Nigeria's firepower and H2H dominance scream a comfortable quarter-final spot – but Mozambique's grit could force respect in their fairy-tale run.

Current Form – Super Eagles Perfect, Mambas Maiden Milestone
Nigeria
Perfect group: Wins over Tanzania (2-1), Tunisia (3-1), Uganda (3-0) – 8 goals scored, strong attack (Lookman 4 involvements)
Momentum: First 100% group since 2021; Osimhen/Lookman firing
Full squad: No major issues; Chelle's side clinical
Mozambique
Historic run: Win over Gabon (3-2, first-ever AFCON victory), but losses to Ivory Coast/Cameroon – third place advances
Attack sparks: Catamo (goals/assists), Bangal threat
Motivation: First knockout; full squad
Head-to-Head: Nigeria Unbeaten
Nigeria unbeaten in 5 (W4 D1); last AFCON meeting 3-0 Nigeria (2010). Recent friendly 3-2 Nigeria.
Tactical Breakdown
Chelle's Nigeria high press, wings (Lookman/Chukwueze) for Osimhen poaching – dominate possession. Conde's Mambas counter via Catamo/Bangal – grit but quality gap huge in knockouts.
The Killer Stat for Nigeria Win
Nigeria perfect group (first since 2021); Mozambique only 1 win in 18 AFCON games ever.
Final Prediction
Nigeria 3–0 Mozambique
Lookman dazzles, Osimhen brace – clean sheet, Super Eagles cruise to quarters.
