Nigeria booked their semi-final spot with a convincing 2-0 win over Algeria at the Stade de Marrakech today. The victory sets up a last-four clash against Morocco, who had defeated Cameroon in the quarter-final.

The Eagles entered the quarter-final after a 4-0 win over Mozambique in the Round of 16, having scored 12 goals in four games — the tournament’s highest tally.

Algeria, who were unbeaten before the quarter-final, had conceded only once in four matches and were widely regarded for their strong defensive record.
