The Flying Eagles of Nigeria will play their final group game of Group B of the 2025 Under-20 AFCON against Kenya at the June 30 Stadium Stadium on Wednesday, May 7.
Coach Aliyu Zubairu’s lads have had a decent start to the tournament, beating Tunisia 1-0 in their opening game last Thursday and settling for a goalless stalemate against Morocco in their second game on Sunday.

Why the Flying Eagles must beat Kenya?

As it stands, the Flying Eagles are second in Group B by virtue of goals. While a draw might just be enough for them to progress, they need to win the game, and with a healthy margin too, to seal their spot at the summit of the group.
If the Flying Eagles fail to do that, they might just get a tough opponent in the knockout rounds.

Kenya have lost their first two games of the competition against Tunisia and Morocco, so Zunairu’s lads should be able to nick a comfortable win.
