Do you know


Super Eagles defender, William Troost-Ekong has disclosed that former Super Eagles manager, Sunday Oliseh labelled him and Leon Balogun too soft to play African football during his reign as coach.

But today he is making his 50th cap for super Eagle's

He is the current vice captain of the super eagles


He has won an Olympic medal with Nigeria


You can achieve anything if you believe

Ahmed Musa will soon top the list; just 2 more games. I know Rohr will do him that favor by featuring him in next 2 matches even if na cameo appearances.

All hail our own CR7 abi AM7!
