Super Eagles players were understandably excited following their 4-0 hammering of Libya on match day three of the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers and took to social media, their preferred medium of communicating with the fans, to express their joy.

A hat-trick from Odion Ighalo, his first in Super Eagles colours, plus an additional tally from Bordeaux winger Samuel Kalu saw the Gernot Rohr led side pick up their second successive win in the AFCON qualifiers.

A number of the players refused to get carried away and are looking forward to another crucial match against the same opponents this Tuesday, Iwobi was labelled the crown prince of the Super Eagles by Balogun and Abdullahi Shehu provided an injury update.
