Nigeria 3 1 Uganda: Super Eagles seal perfect group record

Nigeria’s rotated Super Eagles side completed a perfect AFCON Group C campaign with a 3 1 win over Uganda in Fès, Morocco. Paul Onuachu scored once and Raphael Onyedika hit a brace as Nigeria finished with nine points from three games.​ Onuachu, preferred to Akor Adams as coach Eric Chelle made several changes from the wins over Tanzania and Tunisia, opened the scoring in the 28th minute. He finished calmly from a Fisayo Dele Bashiru cross just two minutes after Uganda’s veteran keeper Denis Onyango had denied him from close range.​ Nigeria had dominated from the start, with Samuel Chukwueze and Moses Simon threatening early. Chukwueze saw a 9th minute effort deflect off the wall and delivered a dangerous cross that almost found Onuachu, while Moses went close shortly before half time.​ After the break, Uganda briefly threatened as Rogers […]

Super Eagles stars one booking away from AFCON ban

Four key Super Eagles players risk suspension ahead Nigeria’s final AFCON 2025 Group C match against Uganda. Victor Osimhen, Ademola Lookman, Semi Ajayi and goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali are all one yellow card away from missing the Round of 16.​ If Osimhen is booked in the Uganda game, coach Eric Chelle may be forced to start Paul Onuachu as striker in the first knockout match. Lookman, who has scored in both of Nigeria’s games so far, would also be ruled out of the next round if he receives another caution.​ Ajayi’s card situation could push Chelle to adjust his back line, possibly turning to Zaidu Sanusi to keep the defence stable. Nwabali, cautioned for time wasting against Tunisia, would be replaced by Francis Uzoho if he picks up a second yellow card.​ Nigeria have already beaten Tanzania 2-1 and Tunisia 3-2, […]

Onuachu ruled out of Trabzonspor clash with Besiktas

Trabzonspor will be without in form striker Paul Onuachu for this weekend’s key Turkish Super Lig match against Besiktas. The Nigerian forward, who rejoined the former champions in the summer from English Premier League side Southampton, has been one of their standout players this season.​ Onuachu has scored 11 goals in all competitions, making him a central figure in Trabzonspor’s attack. His physical presence and clinical finishing have been vital to the club’s push for a strong league position.​ He will miss the high profile encounter through suspension after picking up a yellow card in the team’s last league outing. The booking, received while he was deployed in an unfamiliar role, triggered an automatic one match ban that rules him out of the Besiktas game.​ His absence is seen as a major setback for Trabzonspor as they chase a positive […]
