Basketball Nations Cup.
The historic win for D'Tigers also gave Nigeria a ticket to the Rio
2016 Olympics.
Before Sunday's final Nigeria has never beaten Angola in nine meetings
dating back to 1987.
It was never a dull moment in tonight's clash in Rades, the defending
champions took the first quarter 13 points to 11 points, Nigeria
rallied back and dominated the second quarter 27 points to 11 points.
The third quarter was a tight contest between both sides with Nigeria
slightly edging out Angola 14 to 12 points. It will be the second
Olympic appearance for Nigeria's men's team after the first showing at
the London 2012 Olympics.
