Nigeria’s Super Sand Eagles have qualified for the 2017 World Beach Soccer Championship, to be held in Bahamas.

This follows their victory in the semi-final of the African Beach Soccer Cup of Nations in Lagos, after beating Morocco 6-1.

Goals from Abu Azeez, Suleiman Ogodo, Emeka Ogbona, and Emmanuel Owhoferia, gave Nigeria victory in what was seen by many as a one sided game.

Coach Adamu Ejo’s boys will now face Senegal in the final of the tournament later on Monday.

Senegal who defeated Egypt 5-2 in the first semi-final, have also qualified for the world beach soccer championships.
