X Facebook LinkedIn Telegram Threads WhatsApp

D’Tigers have recorded back to back wins, beating Guinea 62-59, to go third in the FIBA World Cup qualification standings.

Needing to win all three of their WCQ matches, D’Tigers have set out on a positive note, but they’ll have to wait for results elsewhere to ascertain their progress in the quest.

Firstly, the team predominantly comprised of Players from the local league, saw off group leaders Ivory Coast on Friday.

Twenty-four hours later the team snatched a narrow win over Guinea, turning the game on its head in the last quarter.

Guinea would be disappointed with the result as they dominated the Q2 and Q3 22-8 and 13-8 respectively, after tying up the Q1 13-13.

Next up for the Nigerian team is a mouthwatering encounter against host and high flying Angola.

Angola, who booked their place at the World Cup on Saturday, have been in impressive form, winning 8 of their last 10 encounters.
