January 31, 2015 – President of Nigeria Football Federation, Mr. Amaju Melvin Pinnick will be Match Commissioner of Sunday’s Africa Cup of Nations quarter final clash between Ghana’s Black Stars and Syli Nationale of Guinea at the Nuevo Estadio do Malabo.
The Match 27 of the 30th Africa Cup of Nations was concretized only after the drawing of lots, which saw Guinea emerge the lucky team at the expense of Eagles of Mali.
The 1976 runner-up Guinea and 1972 runner-up Mali had finished on equal number of points and goals scored in their Group D, and also drew the clash between the two teams, necessitating drawing of lots in Malabo on Thursday.
The Confederation of African Football has continued to repose confidence in Pinnick, who has taken charge of a number of matches since the tournament began on 17th January.
