Unity Cup Tournament: Super Eagles Pip Black Stars in London

Nigeria and Ghana lit an electric atmosphere at the Brentford Gtech Community Stadium on Wednesday, with the Super Eagles who came out on top of a sweet 2-1 victory that was born in the final on Saturday.
An ecstatic evening in West London began with a frenetic pace, with Cyriel Desser who asked difficult questions about the defense of Ghana, and did not spend much time before he had his reward. At the 14th minute, the defender Sodioq Ismaila rubbed to the right wing and sent the ball in the box, and the desser fully exploited a defender who slipped as he tried to free the ball, scarred brilliantly and shot over the goalkeeper Benjamin Asare.

Five minutes later, another Audace move caused another goal. Samuel Chukwueze sent the ball in the box from a free kick to 25 meters outside, and the header of Defender Semi Ajayi saw the ball deviated from the body of a defender to a wrong hole as for the second of Nigeria.
Now, in the rise, the Super Eagles could have increased the count two minutes later, but the exciting desser saw its cross in the box asking for a connection.
A roar came out of the large population of Ghana in the stadium when the goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali made a mistake while trying to kick the ball to the defender Igoh Ogbu, but the safe hands based in South Africa made a rescue with one hand to challenge the resulting effort away from the goal.
Asare denied Sikiru to the 32nd minute, and on the other side, the attacker of Remo’s stars was at hand to direct the ball rescue while Ghana was launched with a free kick from the left.
The skipper Jordan Ayew was a thorn in the meat of the Eagles throughout the second half, with skilled touches that left the defenders of the Super Eagles sometimes Flumuxx, and his combination with Christopher Bonsu Baah and Brandon Thomas Asante have eventually the only goal of the Black Stars with 20 Minuetti. Ayew approached the 77th minute draw enough, but lost the target.
Nigeria will take sides at the Reggae Boyz of the Jamaica in the final on Saturday, while the Black Stars face the social Warriors of Trinidad and Tobago in the game of third place starting at 12.30.
On Tuesday the Jamaica blocked another electrifying game, beating the SOCA Warriors 3-2 with a penalty kick in added time, and on Saturday it will be presented against the Super Eagles at 17:00.
