Title: NIGERIA v BENIN
Post by: AshfordFFC on October 14, 2025, 05:44:43 PM
Our 3 lads all start and Chukwueze just assisted the 2nd with a beautiful cross (I missed the start but going by the commentary he may have assisted the 1st goal too).   Now 2 up and can be watched free on FIFA +.

Chuk comes off at the start of the second half. No idea why.

Alex was on for 87 Minutes and Calvin for the full match (both at their best imoh).    From what I saw of Chuk, he was very good in the first half but took a knock towards the end of the half which is why I guess he did not come out for the second half, more a precaution as he lasted the half and not subbed until during the break.... although I am not a doctor!

Final score at 4 - 0 to Nigeria with Victor Osimhen with a hat trick and Chuk assisted with two of those.

I can see why Galatasaray paid 75 Million Euro for him . . . . . beast!

highlights

cracking pair of assists for Chuk who was involved in alot of great build up play when he was on the pitch. Looks like he's refinding his confidence. Happy for him and hope the knock isn't too serious. We'll need him Saturday

Seen walking around after the game without any strapping and seemingly moving ok. Hopefully just a precaution

After a performance like that he should be starting ahead of Harry who didn't do much this break.
