    Nigeria v Russia Friendly MATCH REVIEW

    Olu reviews Nigeria's 3-3 draw with Russia, looks at the performances, the debutants, the positives and the concerns, and asks what this result means for the Super Eagles heading into the next round of AFCON 2027 qualifiers.Nigeria have ended the international window with a 3-3 draw against Russia in Nizhny Novgorod, but after the disappointment of the 3-0 defeat to Guinea-Bissau, did the Super Eagles do enough to restore some confidence?Kelechi Iheanacho marked his return to the national team with a brilliant goal to put Nigeria ahead, but Russia hit back to take a 3-1 lead. With a heavily depleted squad and a number of new faces given an opportunity, Nigeria had to dig deep to get back into the game.19-year-old Peter Edokpolor made a huge impact on his Super Eagles debut, driving through the Russian defence before firing Nigeria back into the game in the 78th minute. Then, deep into stoppage time, Akor Adams popped up with the equaliser to make it 3-3.It was also a big night for the next generation, with NINE players making their senior international debuts as Éric Chelle tested the depth of his squad. Only six players in Nigeria's starting XI had previously played for the Super Eagles.But was this actually a good response from Nigeria after Guinea-Bissau? Did the new boys show enough to stay in Chelle's plans? What did we learn from Peter Edokpolor's debut, Kelechi Iheanacho's return and Akor Adams' late goal?#SuperEagles #NigeriaFootball #Nigeria #Russia #AFCON2027 #KelechiIheanacho #AkorAdams #PeterEdokpolor #NFWJoin as a member today: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbEAS-WbghdS_BFYk_66B7A/joinListen to the audio version of the podcast for free on all major podcast platforms here: https://podfollow.com/nigeria-football-weekly/view or https://linktr.ee/nigeriafootballweeklyCheck out our website: nigeriafootballweekly.comFollow Nigeria Football Weekly:Twitter - https://twitter.com/NFWPodInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/nigeriafootballweekly/TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@nigeriafootballweeklyFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/NigeriaFootballWeeklyLinktree - https://linktr.ee/nigeriafootballweeklyEmail - olu@nigeriafootballweekly.com

    Nigeria vs Guinea Bissau MATCH PREVIEW | AFCON Qualifier Preview

    Nigeria face Guinea-Bissau in their second AFCON 2027 qualifier, with the Super Eagles looking to make it two wins from two after a dramatic 2-1 comeback victory over Madagascar in Uyo.George Ilenikhena and Moses Usor were the heroes against Madagascar, with both new Super Eagles coming off the bench to score on their international debuts. Two players Nigeria Football Weekly has championed for some time now have announced themselves on the international stage — but can they build on those impressive debuts against Guinea-Bissau?The Djurtus also made a statement in their opening game, beating AFCON 2027 co-hosts Tanzania 2-0 away from home. With Tanzania already guaranteed a place at the tournament, only ONE team from the remaining three sides in Group L will qualify, meaning Nigeria, Guinea-Bissau and Madagascar are effectively fighting for a single ticket.Nigeria also have a strong historical record against Guinea-Bissau, winning three of their four previous meetings. However, Guinea-Bissau have already shown they can cause problems for the Super Eagles, famously beating Nigeria 1-0 in Abuja during the 2023 AFCON qualifiers before Nigeria won the return fixture 1-0 in Bissau.Olu previews Guinea-Bissau vs Nigeria, looks at the threat posed by the Djurtus, the significance of this match in the race for AFCON 2027 qualification and whether Ilenikhena and Moses Usor can make another impact for the Super Eagles.#supereagles #NigeriaFootball #Nigeria #AFCONJoin as a member today: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbEAS-WbghdS_BFYk_66B7A/join Listen to the audio version of the podcast for free on all major podcast platforms here: https://podfollow.com/nigeria-football-weekly/view or https://linktr.ee/nigeriafootballweekly Check out our website: nigeriafootballweekly.com Follow Nigeria Football Weekly:Twitter - https://twitter.com/NFWPod Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/nigeriafootballweekly/ TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@nigeriafootballweekly Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/NigeriaFootballWeekly Linktree - https://linktr.ee/nigeriafootballweekly Email - olu@nigeriafootballweekly.comCHAPTERS

    Nigeria vs Madagascar Preview | AFCON Qualifier

    The Super Eagles begin their journey to qualify for the 2017 AFCON title and with Victor Osimhen unavailable, Eric Chelle has some big questions to answer.Olu breaks down Nigeria's latest squad, the NFF's recent resignations and why, in his view, Nigeria simply cannot afford to miss another World Cup. He looks at who could replace Osimhen, how Taiwo Awoniyi might fit into the attack, and the maiden call-ups for Isaac James, George Ilenikhena and Moses Usor.With several key players dealing with injuries, Olu also looks at what Nigeria can expect from Madagascar, including their previous meeting at the 2019 AFCON and what has changed since then.He also discusses the importance of continuity under Eric Chelle, before revealing his predicted Super Eagles XI and final score prediction.#SuperFalcons #NigeriaFootball #Nigeria #FIFAWomensWorldCupJoin as a member today: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbEAS-WbghdS_BFYk_66B7A/join Listen to the audio version of the podcast for free on all major podcast platforms here: https://podfollow.com/nigeria-football-weekly/view or https://linktr.ee/nigeriafootballweekly Check out our website: nigeriafootballweekly.com Follow Nigeria Football Weekly:Twitter - https://twitter.com/NFWPod Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/nigeriafootballweekly/ TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@nigeriafootballweekly Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/NigeriaFootballWeekly Linktree - https://linktr.ee/nigeriafootballweekly Email - olu@nigeriafootballweekly.comCHAPTERS4:38 Squad list card5:20 - NFF resignations, Nigeria can never miss a World Cup12:20 - Who replaces Osimhen, how will Awoniyi fit in the squad13:03 - Isaac James, Ilenikhena & Moses Usor Maiden call up13:29 - Injuries To Major Super Eagles13:51 - What to Expect from Madagascar & Previous Meeting at 2019 AFCON19:57 - The Importance of Continuity for Eric Chelle 22:33 - Predicted XI26:12 - Score predictions

    Orban Brings More Heat, Arokodare Rescues Ajax & Awoniyi Returns! | WEEKEND REVIEW SHOW

    Gift Orban just CANNOT stop scoring! After last week's hat-trick, the Nigerian followed it up with a goal and an assist as Amedspor beat Beşiktaş 3–2 — taking him to seven goals and two assists in just six league games and keeping him right at the top of the Turkish Süper Lig scoring charts. Tolu Arokodare also continues to make a huge impression at Ajax. The Nigerian came off the bench against Excelsior and scored just two minutes later to rescue a 2–2 draw, taking him to five Eredivisie goals and six goals in all competitions since joining Ajax. Calvin Bassey produced another strong performance for Fulham, helping them earn a 1–1 draw against Manchester United, while Frank Onyeka played 90 minutes as Coventry City finally picked up their first Premier League win — and their first goal — in 25 years! Ademola Lookman featured in Atlético Madrid's huge 2–1 derby victory over Real Madrid, Samuel Chukwueze continues to get regular minutes at AC Milan, Rafiu Durosinmi's scoring run finally ended, Ibrahim Olawoyin got his first goal of the season and Stanley Nwabali kept another clean sheet. And then there is the big Super Eagles news. Victor Osimhen is officially OUT of the opening AFCON 2027 qualifiers, with Taiwo Awoniyi called up to replace him. George Ilenikhena is preparing for his first senior Nigeria camp, while Nigeria's separate Russia-friendly squad gives us plenty of new names to discuss.
