The match will be available to watch in the United States and in other countries through select TV channels and streaming services.
Nigeria’s second goal was born from another Iwobi “pre-assist”. His through-ball to Osimhen carried enough pace to break Algeria’s lines, but it was not so heavy as to make the chance difficult for the striker. Osimhen could have taken the chance himself, but unselfishly squared it to Adams, who rounded the goalkeeper to score.
