A Star Is Born: Azeez Double Fires Super Eagles into Unity Cup Final
Nigeria’s second-string Super Eagles delivered a polished performance to beat Zimbabwe 2-0 at London’s Valley Stadium and secure a place in the 2026 Unity Cup final. Millwall forward Femi Azeez stole the show on his international debut, netting in the fifth and 63rd minutes with two clinical finishes. Veteran striker Terem Moffi also impressed by providing both assists and demonstrating the finishing spark Nigeria will need in AFCON qualifiers. Coach Eric Chelle’s tactical plan paid dividends, as the side blended fluid passing and solid defensive shape despite limited training together. Wrexham goalkeeper Arthur Okonkwo kept a clean sheet, while debutants like winger Philip Otele and the fresh crop of talent showed Nigeria’s squad depth is in safe hands.
