Nigeria has won the bronze medal in men's football today at Rio with a
3-2 victory over Honduras.


Sadiq Umar got the first goal after 34 minutes and his namesake Aminu Umar doubled their lead two minutes into the second half.

Sadiq Umar scored his second and
Nigeria's third seven minutes later
when he controlled another good
pass from the captain John Obi Mikel
and hammered home from 15 yards
(13.7m).

The goal appeared to have guaranteed victory but Honduras
came back into the game and
threatened to win their first Olympic
football medal.
Eventually, Nigeria won 3-2.

Naija for life!
