Nigeria secured third place at the Africa Cup of Nations , edging Egypt 4-2 on penalties after a goalless draw in Saturday's bronze medal match.

Goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali made two saves from Egypt's Mohamed Salah and Omar Marmoush to set up Nigerias success in the shootout at Casablancas Stade Mohamed V.

Nigeria had the ball in Egypt's net twice but the efforts from Paul Onauchu in the first half and Ademola Lookman after the break were ruled out.
