Peter Odemwingie has been one of the brightest parts of Nigeria’s CAN campaign, and his two goals, separated by two minutes on the game clock, confirm his place as one of the most important Eagles come 2010. The first started from well outside Mozambique’s penalty area when he received the ball, and with fullback Campira waiting to see what he would do next, Odemwingie hit a thundering left-footed shot that squeezed inside the near post. For the second, his pace put him in a position to easily capitalise on Yakubu’s breakaway and cross.

If and only if Ikechukwu Uche regains his form after injury, otherwise it is Odemwingie hands down!!!
