Enyimba winger Clinton Jephta has been named Man of the Match for tonight’s Flying Eagles triumph against Niger in the semifinal of the WAFU B U20 tournament in Lome, Togo.
Jephta scored twice to put Nigeria ahead in tonight’s clash.
He first scored in the 35th minute to draw the Flying Eagles level after Niger took a shock lead.
He then netted the go-ahead goal in the 58th minute, before Alonge Olalekan made the game safe with practically the last kick of the ball in stoppage time.
Former Niger Tornadoes star Jephta has now scored three goals at this competition in Togo.
Captain Daniel Bameyi was Man of the Match when the Flying Eagles beat Cote d’Ivoire to win Group B.
