A round-up of the Nigeria-eligible players that were in action for their respective
clubs in the English Premier League on Saturday, April 27.
At Selhurst Park (London), England U21 winger Ademola Lookman was an 84th minute substitute as Everton were held to a goalless draw by Crystal Palace.
Elsewhere, in a six-goal thriller at the St. Mary's Stadium, Bournemouth and Southampton shared the spoils.
Jordon Ibe watching proceedings from the bench for the entire duration of the game while teammate, Dominic Solanke played the last 18 minutes.
On 20 minutes, Bournemouth's Dan Gosling cancelled out Shane Long's opening goal and Callum Wilson scored on 32 to put the visitors 2-1 up heading into the interval.
The Saints had established a 3-2 lead thanks to goals from James Ward Prowse and Matt Targett in the 55th and 67th minute respectively, only for Wilson to bundle over the line and grab an equaliser for the Cherries with four minutes left.
At Vicarage Road, Isaac Success made his 29 appearance of the season after his introduction in the 82nd minute of Watford's 2-1 loss to Wolverhampton Wanderers. He was cautioned in the 85th minute.
Four minutes before halftime, Raul Jimenez opened the scoring for the visitors, Andre Gray lashed home the equaliser three minutes after the restart, before Diogo Jota fired Wolves back in front in the 77th minute.
In the late kickoff, Leon Balogun has been left out of Brighton & Hove's match day 18 against Newcastle United at The American Express Community Stadium.
