Super Eagles captain Wilfred Ndidi produced an emotional and historic moment after scoring his first-ever goal for the Nigerian national team during Nigeria's 3-2 victory over Tunisia .
Ndidi found the net in the 50th minute, making it 2-0 for Nigeria, and immediately celebrated by recreating Nwankwo Kanu's iconic goal celebration from the Atlanta 1996 Olympics semifinal against Brazil. The moment instantly sparked nostalgia among Nigerian football fans.
The tribute carried even deeper meaning as Ndidi wears the number 4 jersey, a shirt number famously worn by Kanu Nwankwo during that legendary Olympic campaign. Coincidentally, Ndidi scored his maiden international goal in his 73rd appearance for the Super Eagles, making the moment even more special.
