Nigeria advanced to the final of the Unity Cup 2025 with a 2-1 victory over Ghana in a tense semi-final clash in London. The match was full of energy and intensity, as both teams looked to gain the upper hand in this historic rivalry.
Nigeria took the lead in the first half with a sharp finish inside the box after a quick attacking move. Ghana tried to respond by keeping possession and pushing forward, but struggled to find space in the final third.
The second half began with Nigeria pressing higher and putting more pressure on Ghana’s defense. Their approach paid off as they scored a second goal early in the half, capitalizing on a misplaced pass to double their advantage.
Ghana made changes, including the introduction of fresh legs in midfield and attack. The adjustments brought more control and led to a late goal that gave Ghana hope. A neat passing sequence was finished with a close-range strike to reduce the deficit to 2-1.
Despite a strong finish from the Black Stars, Nigeria maintained their focus and saw out the match to secure a place in the final. Ghana, meanwhile, will turn attention to upcoming matches as they continue to build the team.
