If head to head still counts

Nigeria will be taking on bafana bafana in the second quarter final game of the on going African Cup of nations in Egypt. Nigeria showed good team play to see of Cameroon to end the game 3-2 in favour of the eagles, the afcon continues to produce more shocker as South Africa defeated the host nation with late minute strike that was good enough to send the pharaohs packing.

Now the thing is this, prior to this game Nigeria have lost only two competitive matches to the south Africans and Nigeria have won seven which gives them the edge, if we were to go by h2h then it should be a Nigeria party tomorrow.
South Africa passed the group stage as best losers and with a surprise defeat to the host nation there seem to be finding their feet but they have to do more of they want to get pass the energetic and vibrant super eagles.
