Osimhen Allays Injury Fears, Ready For Super Eagles Vs Benin, Lesotho

Lille forward Victor Osimhen has allayed fears he could miss Nigeria’s 2021 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying double header against Benin and Lesotho as a result of injury, reports Completesports.com.

Osimhen sustained an abductor injury in Lille’s 3-O home win against Girondis Bordeaux on Saturday.

The 20-year-old was replaced by Loic Remy in 58th minute of the encounter.

The former Wolfsburg of Germany striker took to the social media to provide update on the injury.

”I’m fine, it’s just a minor injury issue, thanks brother,”Osimhen replied centre-back, Kenneth Omeruo who asked a question on the severity of the injury.

Osimhen has scored seven goals and recorded two assists in 11 league games for Lille this season.

The Super Eagles will host neighbours Benin on November 14 in their opening AFCON 2021 qualifying fixture and then face Lesotho in Maseru five days later.

Wow, so kind of omeruo to check up on his brother.
Get well soon Victor

Well if I were to choose between Pepe and Iwobi, I'd pick Pepe easily as I know what he can give when he fully adapts.
Dude has the most key passes and dribbles in the team. He is adapting very slowly but the talent is not in doubt.

I would pick Iwobi . Pepe is good no doubt but iwobi will offer something more to this current arsenal team. Although, am not writing off pepe yet. He seems to me someone who is willing to do more.

yes please, they even beat us just before the start of last World cuo

and so.... we defeated Argentina before the WC, does that make us better than them. England should win Euro first before we go dey talk.

darkelf:
Some will read about it and still do the same. I expect better from someone married with a kid. At least pity your wife if you don't pity yourself

You are right bro. A person's life is not precious to him alone.

darkelf:
You're absolutely right.

A married man for that matter with a baby girl.

Its really sad

really sad, I pity the wife and kid though.
He went clubbing leaving his beautiful family at home... He got drunk at the club, his attempt to drive in that drunken state is like a death sentence.
I

somehow:
Are you a Nigerian because Nigeria is perfect?
We are a goal down already.

toorh..issokay

Famocious:
Hungary is 1 goal up in the first 3 minutes

chai !!!

simiife:
Has it been reported here dat Nacho lost his PA in q motor accident

He went to club, got drunk and involves in auto crash on his way home. I know guys here may bash me, but that is a SUICIDE IMO.

Eseose9:
Are you guys aware that victor is injured? after a superb performance

OMG, is it serious.?

comodo:
Not only d bichi dude. Garba kept the Akande guy on the bench throughout the qualifiers. Even the 3rd place game, he couldn't give him even 3mins runout. I was like why bringing this boy from UK to keep him on the bench. He was not capped and now the boy is still as free as air. The much talked about ebiwoie came for the try out. He made the team to Brazil. The same Garba did not feature him in any friendly and kaboom he was dropped. From nowhere Bichi name surfaced. Naija matter tire person I swear.

at least , you got my point. the team management and selection lately have been questionable

somehow:
Wrote them off because no foreign born to hype or how can one player make them throw away a whole team?

are u saying the team selection and management have been perfect. Anyway, I WISH them the best,

jihday:
lol, are you serious or just bants?

bit of both. are they really better than us?

Wait o, sentiment apart, is England better than Nigeria, football wise? I ,personally thinks the only area they edge us is their league. Upon all the 'talents' dem dey snatch from us, what have they achieve with them?

somehow:
Our U17 boys playing tonight by 9pm, are they not worth discussing or what?

lol... be like some of us here already 'wrote them off' since that 'bichi' saga.

elyte89:
9pm....Lagos time

ok ..thanks

abeg.... what time golden eaglet get match tomorrow

Utonwanne:
Ebere Eze should f#ck off. We are trying to help his career and he's forming messi.

I tire o. I just hope he got to re think

I just wonder what some people here will say if ozil is a Nigerian.

BascoVanVeli:
Akpeyi should be recalled. I think this would be the safest bet.

I disagree sir, there should be at least one decent goalkeeper in NPFL. he should deputize for ezenwa.

jihday:
This one na one chance o, Courtois younger brother

lolz... but.llbut... the guy dey comment and like NFF posts na

elyte89:
is he bigger dan Newcastle?

no... but bidding for him is like trying to drag him down. Why dem no bid for him when he dey chaleroi?

andrew444:
I dont want osimhen to join newcastle as i see it as backward

Newcastle to start with Lille winger in major rebuild
2 hours ago 11:41

Newcastle have set their sights on Lille striker Victor Osimhen as they plan on a major rebuild in January, reports The Chronicle.

The Premier League club have reportedly sent scouts to watch the 20-year-old, who was named as September's Ligue 1 Player of the Month after two goals and two assists in five league games.

The young forward now has eight goals in 11 appearances for the club since joining from Belgian outfit RSC Charleroi in the summer, having also scored on his full Nigeria debut in a 2-2 friendly draw against Ukraine in September.

dem dey craze? who dash monkey banana? make dem face their lane o

Eartquake1:
Hmm

infact .. when I saw the list, the name sef sound unfamiliar but I just jump pass. if it is true, then........

saw this somewhere. ... unbelievable


Abba Bichi never attended training nor went to camp but he will be at the Under 17 World Cup for Nigeria
His father is Yusuf Magaji Bichi, DSS boss.

cc12:
He had already made a move for the ball before it deflated, so you don't expect to him easily react to a ball moving to another direction

maybe u should rewatch the goal. After the ball deflected, it didn't went straight into the net,it deflected upward before dropping into the net. Yes,he moved before the ball deflected but he had all the time in the world to readjust coupled with his height. Even his teammates will disagree with u on this

cc12:
That goal was a major deflation, it wasn't the keeper's fault, no goalkeeper would catch that ball

no..I disagree. with his height, he would have at least punched the ball out for corner but dude gave it up too soon.

Eartquake1:
One match stats are a very bad barometer to judge

this is not a one match stats. he has been doing it consistently since towards the end of last season.

andrew444:
They are still good to play against

I have the feeling that they are stronger than Ukraine

yea..I agreed. They are a good team to play especially when we wanna check the fitness level of our players and how immune they are to intense pressing.

Eartquake1:
Gueye is a better ball player than Ndidi, Ndidi has problems with possession and passing

Anybody who is denying these two facts is blind or has an agenda

how come he has about 92% passing accuracy vs Brazil

andrew444:
Salif sane won’t start because he playes for schakle or what ,he is not better than what we have ,average at best just as our boys

Gomis is a gk and I said he would start

Sabaly is good in going forward ,he is not better than Aina sorry ,sabaly can’t defend ,he was at Bordeaux bench few times last season

even that of the GK is debatable. imagine the kind of goal he conceded at the final

Super Eagles Rated Second Youngest National Team In The World



Could have defeated Ukraine and Brazil sef.

This team is trying. And Rohr really needs a good assistant to complement him and cover his shortcomings
