Nigeria are competing at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations hoping to become continental champions for the fourth time in their history.
The Super Eagles began the tournament in the Ivory Coast as the sixth-highest-ranked nation and without a trophy win since 2013, yet expectations were still high for a squad spearheaded by Napoli star striker Victor Osimhen.
They successfully navigated a potentially difficult group phase without losing a game to qualify for the knockout rounds. They then defeated Cameroon 2-0 in the Round of 16 to underline their credentials as genuine title contenders.
A 1-0 win over Angola in the quarterfinals was enough to send Nigeria into the last four, where they overcame South Africa on penalties following a 1-1 draw. A date with hosts Ivory Coast in the final now awaits
Nigeria's next match at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations will be the final against Ivory Coast.
The fixture takes place at the Alassane Ouattara Stadium, Ivory Coast and kicks off on Sunday, February 11 at 8 p.m. local time.
Here's how the date and time translate to some of the major territories:
