Victor Osimhen continues to etch his name in Nigerian football history after equaling the legendary Segun Odegbami’s goal tally for the Super Eagles.
The 25-year-old striker scored a crucial equalizer in Nigeria’s 1-1 draw against Benin Republic in Abidjan, further cementing his status as one of the country’s finest forwards.
Osimhen’s goal showcased his aerial prowess, a skill that has become a hallmark of his game this season for both club and country.
His consistency in delivering with headers has been a significant weapon, helping him amass goals in crucial moments.
With this milestone, Osimhen now sits just 14 goals away from matching Rashidi Yekini’s all-time Super Eagles record, a feat considered the ultimate benchmark in Nigerian football.
At only 25, Osimhen has time on his side to break records and redefine greatness for Nigeria.
His performance against Benin underscores his ability to rise to the occasion, keeping fans hopeful for more historic moments ahead.
