Nigeria national football team were crowned champions of the 2026 Unity Cup after a commanding 3-0 victory over Jamaica national football team in the final played in London on Saturday.

Nigeria made a flying start to the encounter, taking the lead in just the third minute through Alhassan Yusuf, whose early strike caught the Jamaican defence off guard and set the tone for the match.

The Super Eagles dominated possession and controlled proceedings in midfield, while maintaining a solid defensive shape that prevented Jamaica from creating clear-cut scoring opportunities.

Nigeria extended their advantage in the 59th minute when Terem Moffi found the back of the net, giving the West Africans a comfortable cushion as they moved closer to the trophy.

Substitute Philip Otele completed the rout in stoppage time, scoring in the 90th minute to seal an emphatic 3-0 win and spark celebrations among Nigerian supporters.

The victory handed Nigeria their fourth Unity Cup crown, further cementing their status as the most successful nation in the tournament’s history. The achievement was confirmed in a statement published on the Super Eagles’ official social media platforms after the match.

The 2026 Unity Cup was recognised as a FIFA Tier 1 competition, meaning all matches played during the tournament carried full international status under FIFA regulations.
