Benin shock Eagles with slim victory

By Daily Sports on August 14, 2017

Benin recorded a suprise 1-0 win over Nigeria in the 2018 African Nations Championship (CHAN) qualifier on Sunday.

The West Zone B first-leg encounter was played at the Stade de l'Amitié in the capital city of Benin, Cotonou.

The Squirrels and the Super Eagles tried to settle down to dictate pace of the game in the first 15 minutes of the encounter.

The Squirrels were awarded a late penalty when Hafiz Aremu brought down a Beninoise player in the Super Eagles box.

Mama Seibou then stepped up and hit the back of the net in the 89th minute, and Benin ran out 1-0 winners.
