Nigeria’s Super Eagles were held to a 1-1 draw by Equatorial Guinea in their opening match at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations holding in Ivory Coast.
The Elephants of Equatorial Guinea stunned Nigeria with the opening goal in the 37th minute courtesy of Iban Salvador, who calmly found the back of the net with a brilliant finish beating goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali.
The Super Eagles however would react almost immediately after Ademola Lookman found Victor Osimhen with a cross to level the match.
With limited chances for both sides, Osimhen would miss a glorious chance for the Super Eagles to take the lead as he pulled a right-footed shot well wide of the near post in the 76-minute.
