The Flying Eagles came back from a goal down to beat Congo 2-1 in a friendly on Sunday night.
It was Ladan Bosso’s side first game since they arrived Morocco last week Friday for the final lap of their preparations for the Africa U-20 Cup of Nations.
Despite dominating the early exchanges, the Flying Eagles fell behind on 21 minutes after Onianhue Salomon scored for the Congolese.
The West Africans came close to equalising a couple of times afterwards but were let down by their poor finishing.
Substitute Emmanuel Uchegbu equalised for the Flying Eagles on 66th minute with a brilliant solo effort.
Another substitute Adams Olamilekan netted the winning goal 16 minutes from time after a delightful cross from Emmanuel Njoku.
The seven-time African champions will take on Central African Republic in another friendly on Wednesday.
The team will depart Morocco for the U-20 AFCON on Friday.
The Flying Eagles will face hosts Egypt, Mozambique and Senegal in Group A at the AFCON.
