Ex-Nigeria captain Sunday Oliseh believes that Victor Osimhen played a major role in the Super Eagles not going all the way at the recent 2025 Africa Cup of Nations tournament.
Osimhen was seen having a go at teammate Ademola Lookman during their 4-0 win over Mozambique in the Round of 16, as it was believed that the striker was unhappy at Lookman not passing him the ball during a certain period of the match.
While the incident grabbed headlines in AFCON media during and after the match, Nigeria suffered a 4-2 loss on penalties against Morocco in the semi-finals before jotting down a 4-2 win on spotkicks in the match for third place against Egypt thereafter.
