Giwa secured his place in the U-19 final with a 3-0 victory over Joshua Daniel before causing one of the biggest upsets of the tournament by defeating senior player Samson Asade 3-0 to reach the men’s final.

Quadri also enjoyed a successful outing, overcoming Benjamin Monday 3-0 in the U-19 category before defeating his older brother, Ayomide Yusuf 3-0 to qualify for the men’s final.
