The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has congratulated the Flying Eagles for knocking out hosts Argentina at the FIFA U-20 World Cup on Wednesday.
The Eagles won the game 2-0 despite being written off before the match.
Ibrahim Muhammad and Rilwanu Haliru Sarki scored the goals to end a run of 10 straight U-20 World Cup victories for six-time champions Argentina.
"Knockout hosts. On to the quarters,” CAF wrote on Twitter.
“It’s an African party in South America! ? NAIJA FEVER! ??.”
Knockout hosts ➡️ On to the quarters. ✅
