However, it has since been jettisoned with a lump sum payment for each round of the competition.

Intrestingly, Eagles’ squad members will get additional bonus for the win against Cameroon’s Indomitable Lions in the Round of 16.

Nigeria’s Super Eagles will tackle Angola’s Black Antelopes in a quarter-final fixture at the Felix Houphouet-Boigny Stadium, Abidjan, on Friday.
