World Cup Qualifier: Super Eagles Humble Cameroon 4-0


 

(AFRICAN EXAMINER) – The Super Eagles of Nigeria were very impressive on Friday thrashing the indomitable lions of Cameroon 4-0 to consolidate its position at the top of Group B in the 2018 World Cup African qualifiers.

A goal  from both Odion Ighalo and Chelsea FC  winger, Victor Moses; skipper Mikel Obi and substitute Kelechi Iheanacho ensured  Nigeria grabbed the maximum three points.

After a sluggish start, Ighalo puts Nigeria ahead after receiving a fine pass from  Mikel in the 28th minute.

Mikel made it 2-0 in the 42nd when he latched onto a Victor Moses corner.

Eleven minutes into the second half, Victor Moses combined with gangling winger Moses Simon before slotting home from inside the box.

Iheanacho, who came in for injured Ighalo, made it 4-0 when he nodded past Cameroon’s goalkeeper.

Buhari Hails Eagles Victory over Cameroon
