Nigeria's U23 team is set to slug it out with Germany to qualify for the Final of the football tournament in the Rio 2016 Olympics.
Kick off time is 8pm Nigerian time.
Here are live updates from the event:
19:58 - Players are out on the pitch, national anthems are being played.
0' - Kick off. Nigeria is decked in all white, while Germany is in black. Angels vs Demons?
3' Germany's top scorer, Gnarby gets a yellow for a late challenge on Ezekiel.
9' Germany scores! Gnarby sends a through ball to Max Meyer who squares for Lukas Klostermann to slot into the net. Nigeria 0 - Germany 1
11' NIGERIA MISS! Germany Goalkeeper Timo Horn falters while trying to hit the ball out. It falls to Sadiq Umar who couldn't make the chance count.
19' Udo makes a fatal mistake and gets yellow carded for diving into a reckless challenge seconds later.
21' SAVE! Lars Bender almost gets the second goal for Germany. Goalkeeper Daniel saves with his leg.
30' CHANCE! John Obi Mikel find his way into the German penalty area. He rounds off two German defenders but his final effort is blocked. That should have been the equaliser.
