Holders Nigeria's Flying Eagles sealed a place in the semi-finals of the WAFU B U-20 Championship after a comfortable 3-0 victory over the Sparrow Hawks of Togo.
The result confirmed Togo's elimination after they had earlier suffered a 3-1 defeat to Burkina Faso.
Both teams struggled to create any meaningful scoring opportunities in the first half.
Nigeria, however, took control of the game after the break, with Muiz Adeleke scoring the curtain raiser in the 46th minute.
Adeleke netted Nigeria's second of the game three minutes before the hour mark.
The young striker has now scored four goals in two outings in the competition.
Abdullahi Agbeloye increased Nigeria's lead five minutes from time.
The Flying Eagles, who top Group B with six points, will face Burkina Faso in their next game on Sunday.
