Mauritania Beats Supersand Eagles 6-5, Eliminates Nigeria from Beach Soccer AFCON
The Supersand Eagles of Nigeria have been edged out of the 2024 Beach Soccer African Cup of Nations (AFCON) following a narrow 6-5 defeat to Mauritania in the second leg of their qualifier.
Despite a strong showing in the first leg, where the Supersand Eagles secured a 5-4 victory, the aggregate score ended in a 10-10 tie. As a result, the away goal rule worked against them, and Mauritania advanced to the AFCON.
The Supersand Eagles had been aiming to make a comeback to the AFCON after a five-year hiatus, and their defeat marks a setback for the team.
Historically, Nigeria has claimed the Beach Soccer AFCON title twice, showcasing its strong legacy in the sport.
With this recent result, the Supersand Eagles will now focus on regrouping and refining their strategies in preparation for future competitions, with the goal of a more successful campaign in the next qualifying round.
