Nigeria’s Super Eagles have been drawn against Tunisia, Tanzania and Uganda for the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco.
The Nigerian team was drawn in Group C during the ceremony that was held in Morocco on Monday.
The mouthwatering encounter in the group will see Nigeria battling against the Carthage Eagles of Tunisia.
Champions on home soil in 2004, Tunisia eliminated Nigeria in the semi-final before defeating Morocco in the final. The Tunisian team also knocked out Nigeria in the Round of 16 of AFCON 2021 in Cameroon.
Nigeria defeated Tunisia 4-2 on its way to the AFCON final against Cameroon in Lagos in 2000.
Though Nigeria and Tunisia are the more accomplished teams in Group C, the East African teams of Tanzania and Uganda will likely challenge for the two automatic qualifying spots.
There are no less exciting fixtures in the other groups, with host nation Morocco leading Group A alongside Mali, Zambia, and Comoros.
