Nigeria vs Zimbabwe LIVE: Unity Cup result, latest updates and fan reaction | OneFootball

Nigeria progress to Saturday's final and will face India or Jamaica

Femi Azeez scored twice on his Nigeria debut against Zimbabwe to help seal a place in the Unity Cup final. The Millwall forward put the recent Championship play-off heartbreak to one side and grabbed his opportunity on the international stage with both hands, opening the scoring inside five minutes before giving the Super Eagles breathing space just after the hour mark.

As such, Nigeria - the winners of all three previous editions of the Unity Cup - will look to defend their crown against either Jamaica or India in Saturday’s final at Charlton’s The Valley stadium.

Billed as the rematch from the CAF World Cup qualification campaign, memories of the two 1-1 draws were still fresh before kick-off, but a score has been settled on neutral ground. Zimbabwe managed to derail Nigeria’s World Cup bid, though were on the losing side on Tuesdat evening and therefore have to settle for a place in the third-place play-off which takes place on the same day as the Unity Cup final.
