Osimhen, Nigeria seek harmony with Algeria up next at AFCON

RABAT: Led by Victor Osimhen and Ademola Lookman, Nigeria’s form at the Africa Cup of Nations has offered cause for optimism ahead of Saturday’s heavyweight quarter-final against Algeria despite reports of unrest in the squad. The Super Eagles arrived in Marrakech for the last-eight tie as the top scorers at the tournament with 12 goals in their four games so far. Wins against Tanzania, Tunisia and Uganda in the group stage were followed by a 4-0 demolition of Mozambique in Fes in the last 16, the biggest victory for anyone in an AFCON knockout tie since 2010.
