Unstoppable Nigerian Whizkid Takes Form To International Stage With Brace For England U21s

Three players of Nigerian descent were named in the starting line-up as England U21s wrapped up their UEFA European U21 Championship Group 9 qualifiers with a 5-0 thumping of Bosnia & Herzegovina in Walsall on Tuesday.

Wolverhampton Wanderers stopper Dominic Iorfa who missed the win in Kazakhstan due to a minor injury returned to the starting line-up and he was joined by Chelsea loanee Tammy Abraham and Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Josh Onomah.

Abraham made it 2-0 in the 18th minute with Iorfa and Onomah involved in the build-up, and the Spurs talent was next to get in on the act, scoring a third goal for the home team four minutes out of intermission.

The Bristol City frontman added more gloss to the scoreline with his second goal and England’s fifth in the 68th minute.

He was substituted with 14 minutes remaining while Iorfa and Onomah put in a ninety-minute shift .
