Battle of the Nigerians….
Well-played Nacho. Could’ve being a hattrick of assist if Saka was able to latch on that ball.
By the way, Daka is a bright prospect. He has always impressed from that Zambia African U-20 team.
Wao Wao Wao, Nigerian vs Nigerian. Our players are going places. Nice1 Nacho, more game time and blessings from home. Up up Nigeria

That’s my seniorman, Ihenaecho, he does it better. Keep it up and good luck.
If we are looking for a reliable RWB, his name is Victor Moses. Man is still solid! I think he should be convinced to return.Leicester hardly attacked on his wing and was quite good going forward too.Better in that position than Simon as far as I’m concerned. I know some will disagree, but I saw this game live and I can testifiy that we still need Victor Moses.
Victor Moses in our last world cup appearance allowed Argentina to use his RWB position to score that heartbreaking goal against us… Please he should retire in peace. We can do with who we have, it doesn’t have to be a “Moses”
2 ASSISTS FOR IHEANACHO AND 2 ASSISTS FOR VICTOR MOSES. IHEANACHO’S TEAM COMES OUT ON TOP THOUGH.
GREAT PERFORMANCE BY BOTH PLAYERS.
VICTOR MOSES STILL GOING STRONG. ALL ROUND GOOD PLAY.
SEE HOW LEICESTER PLAYERS WERE FEEDING DAKA BALLS TO SCORE 4 GOALS! IN A SINGLE MATCH AND IN A TOP COMPETITION.
NAPOLI PLAYERS HAD BETTER WAKE UP AND START DOING SAME FOR VICTOR OSIMHEN. THEY SHOULDN’T MAKE HIM STRUGGLE SO HARD TO GET THE GOALS FOR THE TEAM.
@sportsfan you have spoken my mind. Parson can’t score a quatet of goals in a Napoli whr everyone especially insigne is afraid of Osimhen taking the shine off him. Nacho was selfless to have set up those two goals . I think he is very indispensable to Leicester team more than anyone else and even our Ndidi..He makes things happen for Leicester. He has been consistent in doing this for two seasons now.
Looking at the Salzburg vs Wolfsburg’s game, the 4 goals where scored by players with Nigerian roots. Interesting!
SAMUEL CHUKWUEZE ON TARGET!!! Champions League GOAL in Villareal Win…. Bravo Chukwueze!!!
Really interesting. All these things are pointers to where Nigeria should have been among the comity of nations presently…but our potential for national and international greatness has been scuttled by enemies within and a devilish amalgamation.
Nigeria was destined for greatness…but I doubt if we can even pick up the pieces.
The Nigerian boys were simply awesome, up up Nigeria. Liberia, hope you saw them. Good luck Nacho.
Chukwueze always comes back stronger. Good goal!
A fine 4-goal effort by Patson Daka! Two of the goals came from Iheanacho, who once again shows his intelligence when it comes to the final pass.
It won’t surprise me if some Zambians are now comparing Daka to Lewandowski, Lukaku and Haaland.
Hahahaha! That is the nature of nationalistic support.
Nationals want their own players to be better than others from other countries. They want it so badly. They want to wish it into existence. But the reality is often different.
Osimhen is a good striker, and he is getting better by the day. But these ridiculous comparisons to other more established strikers in the world need to be toned down. Yes, hyping him is good, but too much of a good thing can become very bad.
A player is like a plant. If you love it too much, you will choke it to death. A plant needs room to grow. Let’s allow Osimhen some room, so he can grow to become the deadly striker we all want him to become.
