Despite losing to Croatia, Super Eagles midfielder, Oghenekaro Etebo has been rated high after his impressive display during Nigeria's opening match at the ongoing World Cup in Russia. The skillful midfielder and the new Stoke player who made his World Cup debut on Saturday, was unlucky to score an own goal to give Croatia the lead before William Troost-Ekong gifted the Europeans a penalty for their second in the 2-0 defeat.

Statistics have now backed up his excellent showing, rating him as the most proficient player in terms of take-ons in the whole competition so far.

“Oghenekaro Etebo has completed the most take-ons in a single game at the 2018 #WorldCup after the first four days.

• 9 attempted • 9 completed. Perfect dribbling display,” football statistics outlet Squawka tweeted on Sunday.

The stat confirms that Etebo has outdone Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo in the dribbling stakes so far in Russia.

Messi completed eight of 13 attempted take-ons in Argentina’s 1-1 draw with Iceland on Saturday.

Etebo display was superb. I hope our coach do the needful by pushing up the attack.

Our performance against Croatia is classical.

Okay

Ok
Nice one.

Meanwhile check my signature

he's one for the future, naija has a golden generation of players coming. I think Mikel should go back to def. mid. he can't even dribble, give offensive passes.

that guy was just unlucky

he was our best player that night and somehow was at a right place at the wrong time.

Misplaced priority

Honestly he was Awsome...Mikel is the most uselezz player in Nigeria world cup team...Yes I remembered Pius Ikedia but this guy aint offering anything...

Interesting.

After that game, I realized how important experience is.




Have you ever wondered how you can cause a coup at hell fire! Lol
Here is the best way.

such player can only be found in the land of biafra.... Oghenekaro Etebo is a BIAFRAN.

even me too!

and so?? na dribble dey win match?? and besides na only one match dem don play...who swear for this country with misplaced priorities?

The guy is impressive, we need more players like him.

ok

The take one na because of vex for him own goal

Nonsense

Karo was the most amazing player that day. Always in the right place for the ball, but unfortunately shit happens.

If Rohr want something next game then he has to play a 3-5-2 formation with Iwobi and Iheanacho leading the attack. Moses should reverse back to the position he plays for Chelsea and Ebehi should compliment in the other wing. Etebo and Ndidi holding, Mikel ahead behind the two strikers.

isoright

Na wa .Make dem sha win the next match

then useless Mikel obi is what ?

We keep celebrating mediocrity. Football is a team sport so I'm more concerned about the overall performance of the team and not some micky mouse stat.

But his passing was poor

To me he was the only player that showed true hunger for the ball. The other players need to put in more.

I said it... we must find something to console ourselves after all the bashing.

If they lost to Iceland and Argentina, it's better they don't just back home o....
