Super Eagles winger, Alex Iwobi made an impressive performance for Fulham on his debut for the premier league club on Wednesday, September 28, 2023.

Iwobi's performance earned him the Man of the Match award in Fulham's victory over Norwich City in the Carabao Cup third-round fixture, per Daily Post.

The Cottagers made it to the next round of the competition after they defeated the Canaries 2-1 at Craven Cottage.

Iwobi got his first start for Fulham under Marco Silva in the game and was in the line-up alongside Nigerian international, Calvin Bassey.

The Nigerian provided the assist for the first goal of the game before scoring the second, which eventually stood as the winning goal.

The former Arsenal star was nominated for the best player in the game alongside Fulham teammates Fode Ballo-Toure and Marek Rodak.

Fans decided the winner of the award by voting. Iwobi got 47.5% of the vote.

Senegalese left-back, Ballo-Toure was second with 13.7%, ahead of Rodak's 11.9%.

Fulham will face lower division side Ipswich Town in the round of 16 of the competition next month.

Before that, Iwobi and his club teammates will focus on their upcoming Premier League fixture against London rivals Chelsea at Craven Cottage this weekend.
