Forward Peter Odemwingie scored twice to help Nigeria to a 3-0 win over Mozambique and a place in the African Nations Cup quarter-finals.
The Russian-based striker scored either side of halftime as the Super Eagles, who began the tournament with a 3-1 defeat by champions Egypt, made sure of a top-two finish in Group C.
