Nigeria’s Super Eagles defeated Jamaica via penalties to win the 2025 Unity Cup final on Saturday after a 2-2 draw in regulation time.

Moses Simon opened scoring for Nigeria with a composed finish from Cyriel Dessers’ assist, but Kaheim Dixon equalized moments later for the Reggae Boys. Samuel Chukwueze restored the lead with a solo effort before Jon Russell made it 2-2 in the 63rd minute. Both teams failed to break the deadlock afterwards, pushing the match to a penalty shootout, where Nigeria triumphed.

“This win means a lot to us,” said team captain Ahmed Musa. “Winning back-to-back titles shows our determination.”

It is Nigeria’s second consecutive Unity Cup victory.
