WORLD CUP 2018 : AHMED MUSA BRACE BAGS RECORD AFRICAN WIN FOR NIGERIA; GIVES MORE HOPE FOR MESSI'S ARGENTINA !
Argentina prayed hard for Nigeria to win vs. Iceland.Tweet
No, they don't love Nigeria that much, really.
Argentina just in deep trouble - - on the verge of a humiliating early exit at the World Cup after a disastrous 0-3 Loss to Croatia - - desperately needed Nigeria to do well vs. Iceland, to give the Argentines themselves some more lifelines in the Group Stage standings.
And, voila! Thanks, to the magnificent brace from Ahmed Musa @AhmedMusa718, Argentina suddenly, are more alive !
But to be fair, the victory really is about Nigeria -- and Ahmed Musa.
NIGERIA’S AHMED MUSA NAILS HIS 4TH WORLD CUP GOAL, MAKING HIM
THE THIRD HIGHEST AFRICAN GOALSCORER IN WORLD CUP HISTORY.
Musa nails his 4th World Cup goal, making him the third highest African goalscorer in World Cup @FIFAWorldCup history.
And, the Super Eagles @NGSuperEagles just got the highest number of wins by an African nation, also in World Cup history.
That would surely sound very interesting to Argentina, wouldn't it?
