00:00The 38 year old Algerian referee, a FIFA official since 2016, Nulutbi Bekwasa gets us underway here in Zanzibar City at Amman Stadium.

00:11It is Sudan who turn out in white against Nigeria in the dark green.

00:16No more.

00:19Nigeria from the corner.

00:24Directed in towards Mohamed El Noor.

00:29One of two players in the Sudanese starting line-up who don't feature.

00:35Read beautifully.

00:38Adidayo controls well in midfield.

00:43Hadi Haruna and long range effort was perhaps not the best option.

00:50Duka clears.

00:52Sudan are missing a couple of key players.

00:55There are three concerns as they turn over the ball and it's an opportunity spurned by Ahmed.

01:02On the corner.

01:04Sudan can't change that.

01:05Going by Nienge.

01:08Forward again.

01:09Nigeria have got two through ball here.

01:12Was he onside?

01:13Anthony Ijoma strikes it cleanly beyond his opponent.

01:17Nigeria lead.

01:18Protestation from Sudan.

01:20But Nigeria on transition have made brilliant use of the ball and broken the deadlock halfway through the opening half.

01:28Anthony Ijoma.

01:29Anthony Ijoma who looked so promising as a goal scorer in the preparation matches has scored in the tournament proper.

01:35Nigeria have their first at Chan 2024.

01:41ким highlight on a cultural qualification and the second goal was a great pattern of scoring.

01:53And since he found a goal line-up, you cannot combineibl튀 notre boundary with a ball in the

01:55Shield.

01:56In the same park as the court goes in...

01:57Excellent use of transition ball.

01:58Flicked forward.

02:00Now, that will be checked.

02:01The referee was happy that assistant referee said no offside.

02:03that the assistant referee said no offside the finish was excellent the

02:14question is whether or not he was in the opposition half when the ball was passed

02:21or if he was behind

02:25the player past

02:28it is being checked and VAR is going to cancel it out it is offside

02:35having just strayed into an offside position while it was an excellent finish

02:43I'm sure that it was only marginally offside

02:49and as a result

02:53also Hussain Kanti

02:57feet in it's clear at the back post the header was there it's an own goal from Ngenge

03:02pressure from Sudan is told immediately after Nigeria have a goal disallowed Sudan go up the

03:08other end and score

03:09Abdul Razig the player of the match in the one-all draw against Congo gets to celebrate

03:15he struck the frame but it's an own goal by Ngenge

03:18the gifts the Sudanese Falcons of Jedia and the lead

03:23they took the lead against Congo they've taken the lead against Nigeria

03:30it is a couple of minutes of absolute drama here in Zanzibar

03:40Musa Hussain Kanti with a deep probing ball that beats Ngenge in the air

03:46Abdul Razig then hits the woodwork it rebounds kindly

03:49and the Nigerian defender unwittingly put the ball into the back of his own net

04:02in trying to hit it clear nothing that Lawal Mustafa could do about that

04:09celebrations from Sudan this goal will stand

04:19well that's not just ambitious it's a style team mate

04:36and he

04:38is to Chukwu

04:40pass out wide

04:42Daewo

04:43he's got the ability to deliver some telling crosses

04:47he get himself into a position scuffs it slightly but it's still alive for Nigeria

04:51it's put out to safety

04:52so corner to Nigeria

04:55Sudan

05:00they're assigned with a fairly decent pedigree in this tournament

05:05third place finishes in 2011 and in 2018

05:08delivery in it's a tight angle it's into the side netting

05:14is there a handball penalty is going to be called there it is

05:25Nigeria feel aggrieved frustrated Lawal Mustafa his reaction but the referee

05:34had very little option other than to signal penalty

05:39ball came floating into the area and clearly struck an outstretched arm

05:46Ngenge getting up

05:49Nguka was there to clear it just loses his balance slightly I think

05:56maybe some contact with Tuchukwu ahead of him

06:00by the way

06:01Ngenge who scored the own goal has now conceded

06:07the penalty

06:08and a most unfortunate night for a player to score against Nigeria again

06:14Walildin goes good and he has another goal against Nigeria this time it's in the

06:20african nations championship and it's to give Sudan a two-goal advantage

06:25mere minutes before half-time

06:28getting up

06:39more

06:41more

06:42way

06:43Walildin hadir strikes trick lean strikes true

06:48from the penalty mark beats slow i mustafa from 12 yards out

06:52and what you didn't get an opportunity to see was that immediately after the penalty

07:00was converted by the Sudanese captain

07:07Lowell Mustafa showed his leadership qualities

07:12but taking short Haruna so Chukwu delivers toward the back post it's a looping ball into a central

07:27position now and nearly latches on to the end of that ball for a wonderful clearance from Mazin

07:34Bashir young Alilal defender delivery is crisp it's there and it's struck one and Alimi hits

07:42it wide that's Haruna but it was Alimi who hit that final ball referee Lutfi Bukwasa signals the

07:51end of the opening half Lutfi Bukwasa signals the start of the second half it is Sudan who turn

08:01out in the white who lead by two goals to nil over Nigeria and in the dark green the captain

08:07Duka move the ball back alongside him

08:20Adil Ali Abdullah two players waiting Musou Senkanti looks for the square ball

08:27Abdul Azig might get a second chance here and buries it Sudan go three in front

08:3110 minutes into the second half and Sudan are flying

08:47it's been an own goal a penalty but finally the open play goal has come the man that possibly deserved a

08:55goal against Congo gets his reward against Nigeria player of the match on match day one has sent Sudan

09:04into a very confident lead in the second half of this group D fixture other as he regained his footing

09:13after a little slip and having wrong footed a handful of defenders picked his spots and finished with precision

10:24to inflict the greatest ever defeat on Nigeria in the African Nations Championship.

10:33Not cleared by Maño.

10:38In the volley, it's an absolute stunner.

10:48Wonderful technique, splendid finish, scintillating result.

10:57Smiler, Akane again, looks for spacing behind the line, Adilani lays it back, Suriky Smiler,

11:12Elnour is there, collects comfortably, smothers the ball, crutching onto it.
