Nigeria will be wary of becoming the latest victim in an Africa Cup of Nations full of heavyweight upsets.
Morocco, Algeria, Egypt, Senegal and Tunisia have all been knocked out, meaning the five highest-ranked teams in the FIFA rankings are out of contention.
As such, opportunity knocks for the Super Eagles, although they meet an Angola side in prime form.
Gelson Dala (four) and Mabululu (three) are each in the mix for the Golden Boot and shared the goals between them as the Palancas Negras swept aside Namibia in the round of 16, where Nigeria beat rivals Cameroon 2-0 to remain unbeaten in the tournament like their Friday opponent.

1 hour to kickoff: Right then. No Egypt, no Senegal, no Tunisia, no Morocco, no Algeria. Nigeria can’t mess this up from here, surely? Hosts Ivory Coast are still in the mix but were thrashed 4-0 by Equatorial Guinea during the group stage and changed their manager. It’s been pretty wild AFCON and now, looking to bring the Super Eagles to the ground, we have Angola. Ranked 117 in the world but banging in the goals like there’s no tomorrow.
