The three-time African champions secured a thrilling 5-4 penalty shootout win over Jamaica's Reggae Boys on Saturday night after the match ended in a draw during regular time.

During the match, Nigeria took the lead twice through goals from Moses Simon and Samuel Chukwueze, but Jamaica managed to equalize on both occasions, forcing the game into extra time and eventually penalties.

The Super Eagles displayed perfect composure from the spot, converting all their penalties while Jamaica scored four, giving Nigeria the trophy.

First Coaching Trophy for Chelle

Speaking to Oga Nla Media after the match, Chelle expressed his joy at securing his first trophy as a coach and his ambition to bring more success to Nigerian football.

"In reality, this is my first trophy as a coach," Chelle said. "When I was a player, I won trophies, but this is my first as a coach. I hope with this, I can bring more trophies for Nigeria."

The victory marks a positive step for the Super Eagles under Chelle's leadership, with the team showing resilience and determination throughout the tournament.
