Nigeria Finding the Net at AFCON
Nigeria failed to qualify for the World Cup but sneaked into the second round. They secured a 4-1 extra time win over Gabon in the semi-finals but lost to DR Congo in the final, going down in a penalty shootout.

Lookman was influential against Tunisia, assisting Victor Osimhen and Wilfred Ndidi before scoring himself to establish a 3-0 lead. Eric Chelle’s side conceded twice but closed it out to secure a 3-2 victory and a spot in the Round of 16.
