International Friendly: Jordan Deny Eagles With Late Equaliser

The Super Eagles of Nigeria were denied back to back friendly wins after being held to a 2–2 draw by Jordan in Antalya, Turkey. Nigeria came from behind to lead 2–1, but a late equaliser from substitute Mohammad Al Daoud ensured the game ended all square. Jordan drew first blood in the 17th minute through Mousa Al Tamari, who finished off a well worked move to beat the Nigerian defence.

Alex Iwobi and Moses Simon are closing in on historic 100 cap milestones as the Super Eagles take on Jordan in an international friendly in Antalya, Turkey.

Alex Iwobi Says His Parents Taught Him The Art Of Giving

Super Eagles and Fulham midfielder Alex Iwobi says his parents played a central role in teaching him the value of giving and caring for others. He explained that many of his charitable activities today are shaped by simple acts of kindness he watched at home while growing up. Iwobi recalled how his father would leave bottles of water outside for waste collectors and support people around their neighbourhood in small but consistent ways. Those little gestures, he said, showed him that helping others does not always require grand resources, only a genuine desire to make life easier for people. He noted that this mindset now guides his approach to community work. For him, success as a footballer is not just about goals and trophies, but also about using his platform to give back. In recent years, Iwobi has organised charity […]

Europe Watch: Ndidi scores on return, Iwobi shines as Galatasaray miss Osimhen’s spark

Ndidi, returning to the starting XI after weeks on the sidelines, got on the scoresheet for his club and showed his usual energy and defensive discipline in midfield, a timely boost ahead of Nigeria’s next international window. Iwobi continued his fine form by creating chances, working tirelessly off the ball and underlining why he remains one of the Super Eagles’ most consistent Europe based players.​ Over in Turkey, Galatasaray’s attack again lacked cutting edge without Osimhen leading the line, with the team failing to turn possession into goals. The Nigerian forward, who recently returned to training after a muscle injury, is still working his way back to full fitness and his absence has been felt in Gala’s recent league games.​​ Despite the mixed fortunes at club level, the overall form of key Nigerians like Ndidi, Iwobi and Osimhen continues to […]
