Player to watch 🌟

This Tuesday, against Tanzania, Nigeria, the unfortunate finalist of the last edition, makes its debut!

Led by Victor Osimhen, the Super Eagles are hoping to finally see their star have an Africa Cup worthy of his talent.

Indeed, Osimhen and AFCON have had a rather... troubled history.

Absent from the 2022 edition due to a positive COVID test before the tournament kicked off, the striker has scored only one goal in the competition since the start of his career. That's little, far too little considering what he has shown at club level over the past several seasons.

So, will 2025 finally be the year of the masked striker?
