Stanley Bobo Nwabali will play in the final of the African Cup of Nations in Abidjan. The goalkeeper of Chippa United was man of the match in the semi-final against South Africa where he stopped two shots on goal.

Since the retirement of Vincent Enyeama in 2015, no one has established himself in goal for Nigeria, which has changed goalkeepers at each tournament. By winning the final, Bobo will join in the great names of the past, including Peter Rufai (CAN-1980), Sam Henshaw (1994) and Maduka Okoye ( 2022)
