PORTUGAL EDGE SUPER EAGLES IN WORLD CUP WARM-UP CLASH

Portugal took the lead in the match through Pedro Neto, who put the hosts ahead in the opening stages. Nigeria, however, responded positively and found an equaliser through Akor Adams to restore parity.

With both sides pushing for a winning goal, Portugal regained the advantage after substitute Francisco Conceição produced a superb curling effort that beat the goalkeeper and found the far corner of the net.

The result marked Portugal’s second consecutive victory ahead of the World Cup, providing a confidence boost before the tournament. For Nigeria, the match ended in disappointment despite a spirited response and Adams’ goal, leaving the Super Eagles to reflect on a closely contested encounter.
