Nigeria and Tunisia faced off in the last 16 round of the tournament, which was held in Cameroon and was postponed for a year due to the coronavirus epidemic.

Tunisia won the match 1-0 with Mesakini’s goal in the 47th minute at the Roumde Adjia Stadium in the city of Garua. Nigerian Iwobi, who entered the game in the 59th minute, was shown a red card in the 66th minute.
