The Dream Team VI were defeated 3-1 by Burkina Faso while Cameroon got some sort of revenge over the Super Falcons, beating them 2-1 in Tuesday’s semi-final contests.
Goals from defender Seth Sincere, Omar Kabore and Arba Dicko gave victory to Burkina Faso.
The defeats for the Nigerian teams come as a surprising as the two sides were accept to have it easy and carry nothing less than gold in Congo.
The Nigeria men and women football team have both failed in their bid to secure gold medals at the ongoing All Africa Games in Congo.
For the Falcons, after the bright start recorded against Congo and then Tanzania, they failed to sparkle in their final group game, losing to Ivory Coast before now succumbing to Cameroon on Tuesday.
Both the Dream Team VI and the Falcons will now have to save face with the bronze medal matches.
In the other men’s semifinal tie, Senegal beat host Congo 3-1.
