Egypt's defender Ahmed Hegazi fights for the ball with Nigeria's forward Kelechi Iheanacho during the Group D Africa Cup of Nations 2021 football match at Stade Roumde Adjia in Garoua on Tuesday.
Eguavoen’s squad was without forwards Victor Osimhen, Emmanuel Dennis and Odion Ighalo for a variety of reasons, but his team did him proud against Mohamed Salah-captained Egypt. Simon played a major role when the Super Eagles took the lead four minutes later at the 30,000-capacity Stade Roumde Adjia in the northwestern city of Garoua.
Egypt nearly fell further behind a couple of minutes into the second half when Elshenawy got his hands to an Awoniyi header and the ball came back into play off the underside of the crossbar.
