Carl ikeme: Man of the match display, the wolves goalkeeper was almost at his best, made 3 goal bound saves and kept Nigeria in the game

9/10

Wilfred Ndidi: Put In a solid display, not conceding fouls near the area, did enough to earn himself a decent rating

6/10

Elderson Echiejile: Didn't particular attack as he usually did, the Zambians often had him on the run but had a pretty good game

5.5/10

Kenneth Omeruo: Wasn't the best of games for him, made some careless errors where one turned to a goal against him. Still needs to be composed under pressure

6/10

William Etong: Dominant in aerial ball and tackles, has his pace but still needs to build up in strength, still room for improvement

6.5/10

E Onazi: Caught out of position one too many times, failed to protect his back four like he used to, but otherwise had a good game

6/10

Mikel Obi: Came close to scoring in the second half, assisted both in attack and defense. Had a splendid game as captain

7.5/10

Moses Simon: Started brightly as the game went on, was wasteful on occasions, substituted for Musa

6.5/10

Alex Iwobi: His calm and class would remind you of our very own Jay Jay Okocha, scored a beautiful debut goal to send Nigeria in front,

8.5/10

Kelechi Iheanacho: Another starlet to cherish, started quietly but got into the game and scored a peach of a goal leaving everywhere with "wowzers"

8/10

Brown Ideye: Used his strength and troubled the Zambian defense, was excellent in hold up game, Fine game he had

7/10

Over to you

Despite the win, they did not play anything, save for Carl Ikeme, Iheanacho, Iwobi and Mikel. I think Onazi and Omeruo need to be matured.
