The 2026 Unity Cup final pits Nigeria’s Super Eagles against CONCACAF representatives Jamaica inside The Valley in London, Afrik-Foot reports.
Nigeria reached the final by beating fellow Africans Zimbabwe 2-0 on Tuesday, with both goals coming off the boots of Millwall winger Femi Azeez.
Jamaica equally enjoyed a comfortable 2-0 semifinal victory against tournament debutants India on Wednesday to set up this clash.

Despite missing a number of first-team regulars, Nigeria will be slight favourites to beat the Reggae Boyz and seal a record-extending fourth title. The Super Eagles are undefeated in four meetings with Jamaica at the Unity Cup, winning on penalties in last year’s final.
Head coach Eric Chelle claimed the Unity Cup title barely five months into his Super Eagles tenure last year and he would be happy to add a second to his resume.

Chelle will not be able to call on the esteemed talents of Victor Osimhen, Ademola Lookman, Alex Iwobi, Samuel Chukwueze, and Calvin Bassey, as they were not invited for this invitational tournament.
The Franco-Malian tactician will, however, rely on the talents of Femi Azeez, the Millwall winger who netted the brace that dispatched Zimbabwe on his international debut.
The Super Eagles have won every edition of the Unity Cup, claiming the titles in 2002, 2004, and 2025 and they will be keen to maintain that dominance.
