EPL: ‘You think you’re Ronaldo’ – Joey Barton slams Anthony Gordon

Super Eagles midfielder Raphael Onyedika has explained how he was able to score two goals in Nigeria’s 3-1 victory over Uganda.

He also hailed Samuel Chukwueze who helped set up both of his goals in Nigeria’s 3-1 victory against Uganda in the final Group C match at the Africa Cup of Nations, AFCON,  in Morocco on Tuesday evening.

The Club Brugge midfielder netted twice in the second half and was awarded Man of the Match for his excellent performance at the Fez Stadium in Morocco.

After the game, Onyedika praised Chukwueze’s performance and explained that the goal-scoring combination was something they had practiced during training.

“It’s exactly what we train for, so it’s just a matter of seconds. You have to make a decision, and sometimes when you decide, it doesn’t happen right away, but you just have to be ready,” he said.

“I know Samuel really well, and every time he dribbles, he always looks for the first person and then cuts back. I try to stay in that position as much as I can, and today I was in a good spot again.”

The Club Brugge midfielder was happy to win the Man of the Match award and said it was the result of all his hard work over the years.

“I feel really happy and I can’t explain why.  This is the moment I’ve been working for my whole life, and I’m really happy it finally happened,” he said.

Nigeria won their match and finished first in Group C with nine points, which allowed them to move on to the next round.

The Super Eagles have impressed in Morocco with their sublime attacking style of play.

According to SCORENigeria, the Angolan Federation are now offering to double Chelle’s salary.

Chelle is on $50,000 a month, and has a year left on his contract with the NFF.

They want to pay him $100,000 to make him their new head coach.

Super Eagles midfielder, Fisayo Dele-Bashiru, has revealed the mistake Eric Chelle’s men made against Tanzania on Tuesday.

Dele-Bashiru came off the bench as Nigeria defeated the Taifa Stars 2-1 in the 2025 Africa Cup Nations, AFCON, tie at the Fez Stadium in Morocco.

However, according to the Lazio star, the Super Eagles made a mistake by conceding a goal due to a defensive lapse.

Charles M’Mombwa scored for Tanzania, while Semi Ajayi and Ademola Lookman scored for Nigeria.

Speaking at his post-match interview after the game, Dele-Bashiru said, “We played well against Tanzania. For the goal we conceded, it was a lapse of concentration, but we created a lot of chances today.

“I think in another game we finish those chances, and the game would have been dead earlier on.

“We will analyze what we didn’t do well, and then from there we will analyze Tunisia.”
