Well taken penalty….was a torn in the flesh of the Monaco defense through out the game…..Am glad he stayed put in Lorient to show his worth and prove that last season was not a fluke.
Iheanacho with the Penalty goal to seal a 1-0 win for his Leicester City side against top opposition like Manchester City in the Community Shield last weekend. Now it’s Moffi’s penalty goal that ensured another impressive win for his side Lorient against a top Ligue 1 side like AS Monaco in the new campaign. It appears really good early on for the boys & I love that, more grease to Nigeria &prospective Super Eagles players in the new season. Hope we (Nigeria&Super Eagles)continue on this to make a radical impact on the global scene even till next year, Rohr’s weaknesses notwithstanding.
Good players at the super eagles but poor management plus poor leaders equal poor result
