This Saturday alone, find below the scorecard of some Nigerian Players across gender:
Oshoala (female): 1 goal, 1 assist and 2 shots on target.
Akpom (male): 1 goal and a lung bursting performance.
Iheanacho (male): 1 goal and a number of near misses.
T. Payne (female): all round compelling midfield play.
I Success (male): bullish performance reminiscent of legendary Daniel Amokachi.
J Aribo (male): 90 minutes of swashbuckling performance to help power Southampton to FA Cup next round.
Goalkeeper Okoye (male): though on the losing side with Watford, the game time did him a world of good.
Dennis (male): the prodigal son of Nigerian football was back for 90 minutes causing mayhem to opposite defenders.
S. Ajayi (male): posted a powerful performance in the heart of Wes Brom defence to force a 3:3 draw.
Chukwueze (male): ruffled Real Madrid’s defenders’ feathers with dashing leg movements.
Thanks@deo for the update. But my worried with Oshoala is that she hasn’t replicated her club commitment and form for the Super falcons. She is still below Mercy Akide, Cynthia Uwak, Perpetual Nwakocha in terms of commitment and achievement with the SE deedpiye her potentials
