In pictures: Nigeria's semi success
Nigeria's Kanu looked a little concerned about the eventual outcome...... |
......and although this fan was never in any doubt...... |
......substitute Efetobore Sodje seemed to think his side were the underdogs. |
The match was competitive throughout...... |
......but Nigeria's two-goal hero Tijani Babangida (right) stuck early. |
John Moshoeu (right) and the South Africans tried to come back...... |
......only for Babangida to ruin the day for South Africa's Mark Fish and his fellow defenders |
Midfielder Finidi George gave a superb performance tackling Quinton Fortune...... |
......and beating Shaun Bartlett to this header |
The end result was Nigerian delight...... |
......and a job well done for a tired Kanu |
