The two goals were world class. The first was a cracking-goal. It takes a lot to curl the ball away from almost 7ft Courtios. He sent Nacho to Jalingo before scoring the second. They’re both worthy of the price.
All Chukwueze needs is accuracy in shooting. He has all the qualities to play for any big club. He’s a big-game-player too.
