The Super Eagles of Nigeria are currently in a friendly match with the Liberian national team in Monrovia, Liberia. The Liberian however field the the only African to have won the FIFA World player award, George Opong Weah, who also doubles as the country’s President.
The Super Eagles are already leading the encounter by 2 goals to nil before the half time break after Henry Onyekuru and Simeon Nwankwo put the ball into the back of the net.
Nigerians are very happy at the ease with which the Super Eagles are converting their chances and as such have been reacting on social media.
The two attackers have scored. I guess if ighalo played he won't have scored. Pls @NGSuperEagles drop the ighalo

Strikers are known by the number of goals they score not by their Jersey numbers! Hope Ighalo is watching?
