My people, na wetin we see for this AFCON wey dey hot like pepper? Super Eagles don shine like star after dem carry victory even as dem don face one serious wahala with defender Ryan Alebiosu. E no easy, but make we break am down.
Dis young guy, wey be right-back for Blackburn na im make hin international debut na im first match for Super Eagles and e perform well against Uganda, but after the match, wahala come show. E don go hospital for serious cut wey he suffer late for di match. Na serious matter, my people!
Alebiosu dey flex like pikin wey get new toy, but as injury catch am, everybody begin dey worry. Coach Éric Chelle talk say, ‘E no easy to play this kind match, na first time wey e dey play for AFCON. I dey happy for wetin e do, but e get injury and dat one dey worry me.’
Na so far, Nigeria don run three matches wey dem win all, and dem don qualify for di next round, but with dis injury, we fit catch small serious gbas gbos. Even Cyriel Dessers wey suppose shine for di match also dey carry thigh ache, na im dey miss action wey fans dey expect.
Nigeria don’t dey hear say dem fit meet Cameroon or Mozambique next week for knockout stage, but no shaking; dem still get strong players like Victor Osimhen and others wey fit carry dem on top. Who dey fear? Naija no dey carry last!
Di Super Eagles don finish di group stage with sharp record, na first team for dis AFCON wey win all dia matches. But we go need say small prayer for Alebiosu and Dessers. E fit turn when we need dem pass!
