Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen has been named the Man-of-The-Match-Award in Nigeria’s victory over Ivory Coast in Thursday’s 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.

 

Recall that Nigeria defeated the host 1-0 thanks to William Troost-Ekong’s penalty, to brighten their chances of qualifying from Group A.

 

The penalty was won by the Napoli striker after he was brought down by the Ivorien defender in the penalty box. After the Video Assistance Referee (VAR) checked the foul, it was eventually awarded.
