Super Eagles forward, Ahmed Musa made an emphatic mark today after scoring twice in a dramatic second half to secure a 2-0 victory over Iceland in Volgograd on Friday.

The 25-year-old player, Musa grabbed his third and fourth World Cup goals (he scored two in a 3-2 defeat to Argentina at Brazil 2014) to become the first man to score for the Super Eagles at two different World Cups.

Last night in Group D, Croatia put Argentina to the sword – leaving the South Americans on the brink of a World Cup group stage exit. Three second-half goals were enough to guide Zlatko Dalić’s men into the last 16.

Nigeria will be sure of a spot in the knockout stage if they can see off Argentina on Tuesday, after Musa’s excellent double before a missed penalty by Iceland midfielder Gylfi Sigurdsson.

The result was also a boost for Lionel Messi’s Argentina, who are now back in the mix in Group D.
