Victor Osimhen Super Eagles.webp
The Digest:

Victor Osimhen is at risk of a suspension for the Super Eagles' next crucial match after receiving a yellow card for removing his shirt during his goal celebration in the 4-1 win over Gabon.

Key Points:
  • Victor Osimhen received a yellow card for taking off his shirt after scoring.
  • The booking puts him one caution away from an automatic one-match ban.
  • He would miss the intercontinental playoff if Nigeria qualifies and he is booked.
  • The striker scored in extra time after missing a key chance in regulation.
  • Vice-captain Wilfred Ndidi is already suspended for the final against DR Congo.
  • The Super Eagles play DR Congo in the World Cup playoff final on Sunday.
  • Osimhen's absence would be a major blow to Nigeria's attacking strength.
In the high-stakes theatre of qualification, the line between triumphant passion and costly indiscipline is perilously thin.

Rooted in the Storm.
