The recent victory of South African singer Tyla at the Grammy Awards has intensified the rivalry between South Africa and Nigeria, as both countries gear up to face each other in the Afcon semi-finals on Wednesday. Tyla won the award for Best African Music Performance with her song "Water," defeating Nigerian nominees Davido, Arya Starr, and Burna Boy. This has led Nigerians to call on their national team, the Super Eagles, to seek revenge on the football field. Despite the competition, Nigerian artist Davido graciously congratulated Tyla and encouraged her to keep succeeding. Additionally, South Africa was well-represented at the Grammy Awards, with comedian Trevor Noah hosting the event for the fourth time.
