Player Alex Iwobi Urges Fulham to Move Past Defeat To West Ham United
Nigerian Footballer Alex Iwobi stated that it is important for Fulham to move from their defeat to West Ham United. The team lost 3-2 to West Ham United at the London Stadium on Tuesday.
The player scored the two goals for Fulham but still urged the team to move on. Speaking to the media he said “We’re all disappointed the way we lost the game, just mistakes. Had we not made the mistakes, we would have won it.”
“But then there’s a game around the corner and so we cannot dwell on, so we dust ourselves and go again.”
“We created so many chances and hit the post twice, but if you don’t defend as a team, you get punished in the Premier League.”
Former Chelsea midfielder, Claude Makelele advises team to sign in Nigerian Player, Osimhen during the summer transfer.
The ex midfielder praised Osimhen and stated how he will be a strong player in the team. He shared that Osimhen is a finisher and that’s what the team needs.
“Osimhen is a finisher. I think for the way Chelsea plays, they need this kind of striker to have a presence in the box. I think he will be the best option for Chelsea.”
The Super Eagles are aiming for their first away win against Rwanda in Friday’s 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier. Nigeria has struggled to beat the Amavubi in Kigali, with three previous meetings ending without a win.
The last time they faced Rwanda in a World Cup qualifier at the Amahoro Stadium was in 2004, which ended in a 1-1 draw.
In 2011, both teams played to a goalless draw in an Africa Cup of Nations qualifier at the Stade Regional de Nyamirambo. Another goalless draw followed in September last year during a 2025 AFCON qualifying match at the Amahoro Stadium.
With three draws and one loss from their first four games, the Super Eagles are in fifth place in Group C with just three points. Rwanda, on the other hand, sits comfortably in second place with seven points. The Super Eagles need to break their winless streak to keep their World Cup hopes alive.
Rapper Tochukwu Ojogwu, better known as Odumodublvck, has stirred up a heated debate with his latest take on Nigerian football.
The Cast crooner recently declared Mikel Obi as the greatest Nigerian footballer of all time in a post on X, which quickly sparked mixed reactions.
While some agreed with his choice, others argued that players like Rashidi Yekini, Kanu Nwankwo, and Austin Jay-Jay Okocha deserve the title instead.
Mikel Obi had an impressive club career, winning two Premier League titles, four FA Cups, and a Champions League with Chelsea.
On the international stage, he helped Nigeria win the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations and secured a bronze medal at the 2016 Olympics. He also came close to being named African Footballer of the Year in 2013, finishing as the runner-up.
