Video Shows Victor Osimhen Was Angry After Zimbabwe Match
Super Eagle's Front-Man, Victor Osimhen was visibly angry today following the 1-1 draw in the 2026 world cup qualifier against Zimbabwe at the Uyo Stadium on Tuesday Evening.
Oshimhen had given Nigeria the lead towards the end of the game, heading home Ola Aina’s pinpoint cross.
However, the Napoli striker had to be substituted minutes later after collapsing onto the turf with cramps.
From the bench, Osimhen watched helplessly as Tawanda Chirewa ran through to slot home the equaliser past Stanley Nwabali in the 90th minute.
At full-time, Osimhen, who scored twice in the 2-0 win over Rwanda, cut an emotional figure as the reality of the result sank in.
The Eagles remain in fourth place with seven points, four behind Group C leaders South Africa, who defeated Benin Republic 2-0 in Abidjan.
