Nigeria v Russia Friendly MATCH REVIEW
Olu reviews Nigeria's 3-3 draw with Russia, looks at the performances, the debutants, the positives and the concerns, and asks what this result means for the Super Eagles heading into the next round of AFCON 2027 qualifiers.Nigeria have ended the international window with a 3-3 draw against Russia in Nizhny Novgorod, but after the disappointment of the 3-0 defeat to Guinea-Bissau, did the Super Eagles do enough to restore some confidence?Kelechi Iheanacho marked his return to the national team with a brilliant goal to put Nigeria ahead, but Russia hit back to take a 3-1 lead. With a heavily depleted squad and a number of new faces given an opportunity, Nigeria had to dig deep to get back into the game.19-year-old Peter Edokpolor made a huge impact on his Super Eagles debut, driving through the Russian defence before firing Nigeria back into the game in the 78th minute. Then, deep into stoppage time, Akor Adams popped up with the equaliser to make it 3-3.It was also a big night for the next generation, with NINE players making their senior international debuts as Éric Chelle tested the depth of his squad. Only six players in Nigeria's starting XI had previously played for the Super Eagles.But was this actually a good response from Nigeria after Guinea-Bissau? Did the new boys show enough to stay in Chelle's plans? What did we learn from Peter Edokpolor's debut, Kelechi Iheanacho's return and Akor Adams' late goal?#SuperEagles #NigeriaFootball #Nigeria #Russia #AFCON2027 #KelechiIheanacho #AkorAdams #PeterEdokpolor #NFWJoin as a member today: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbEAS-WbghdS_BFYk_66B7A/joinListen to the audio version of the podcast for free on all major podcast platforms here: https://podfollow.com/nigeria-football-weekly/view or https://linktr.ee/nigeriafootballweeklyCheck out our website: nigeriafootballweekly.comFollow Nigeria Football Weekly:Twitter - https://twitter.com/NFWPodInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/nigeriafootballweekly/TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@nigeriafootballweeklyFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/NigeriaFootballWeeklyLinktree - https://linktr.ee/nigeriafootballweeklyEmail - olu@nigeriafootballweekly.com

Nigeria vs Guinea Bissau MATCH PREVIEW | AFCON Qualifier Preview
Nigeria face Guinea-Bissau in their second AFCON 2027 qualifier, with the Super Eagles looking to make it two wins from two after a dramatic 2-1 comeback victory over Madagascar in Uyo.George Ilenikhena and Moses Usor were the heroes against Madagascar, with both new Super Eagles coming off the bench to score on their international debuts. Two players Nigeria Football Weekly has championed for some time now have announced themselves on the international stage — but can they build on those impressive debuts against Guinea-Bissau?The Djurtus also made a statement in their opening game, beating AFCON 2027 co-hosts Tanzania 2-0 away from home. With Tanzania already guaranteed a place at the tournament, only ONE team from the remaining three sides in Group L will qualify, meaning Nigeria, Guinea-Bissau and Madagascar are effectively fighting for a single ticket.Nigeria also have a strong historical record against Guinea-Bissau, winning three of their four previous meetings. However, Guinea-Bissau have already shown they can cause problems for the Super Eagles, famously beating Nigeria 1-0 in Abuja during the 2023 AFCON qualifiers before Nigeria won the return fixture 1-0 in Bissau.Olu previews Guinea-Bissau vs Nigeria, looks at the threat posed by the Djurtus, the significance of this match in the race for AFCON 2027 qualification and whether Ilenikhena and Moses Usor can make another impact for the Super Eagles.#supereagles #NigeriaFootball #Nigeria #AFCONJoin as a member today: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbEAS-WbghdS_BFYk_66B7A/join Listen to the audio version of the podcast for free on all major podcast platforms here: https://podfollow.com/nigeria-football-weekly/view or https://linktr.ee/nigeriafootballweekly Check out our website: nigeriafootballweekly.com Follow Nigeria Football Weekly:Twitter - https://twitter.com/NFWPod Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/nigeriafootballweekly/ TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@nigeriafootballweekly Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/NigeriaFootballWeekly Linktree - https://linktr.ee/nigeriafootballweekly Email - olu@nigeriafootballweekly.comCHAPTERS
