Arsenal midfielder Kelechi Nwakali's outstanding display in the 3-2 loss to Atlético de Madrid in a friendly on Tuesday evening got Super Eagles fans talking.
Apart from netting a very beautiful opening goal from outside the box, the former Flying Eagles skipper's dazzling skills were put on display in Uyo and Atlético Madrid's Ghana international Thomas Partey resorted to being aggressive in order to stop him.
Though Super Eagles fans have questioned the decision to omit Kelechi Nwakali from Nigeria's 30-man preliminary World Cup roster, he still has a chance of playing in the tournament, only if one of the 23 players heading to Russia suffers an injury.
Here's what the Super Eagles fans said about the performance of Kelechi Nwakali :
