‘My hand go run am’ – Stanley Nwabali shares eye-catching video of his ninety-yard throw

Stanley Nwabali proved once again why he holds the title of Nigeria’s Super Eagles’ top goalkeeper with a jaw-dropping 90-yard throw during a match for his club, Chippa United.

This eye-catching play comes just ahead of his participation in the upcoming qualifiers for the national team. The remarkable moment was shared on social media, where Nwabali boasted, “Where your leg can kick the ball to, my hand go run am.”

This statement highlights not just his traditional goalkeeping skills but also his unique ability to launch counterattacks with precision from the back. Nwabali, now 28, has firmly established himself as Nigeria’s number one goalkeeper following his standout performances in the recent Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), where he was instrumental in helping Nigeria reach the finals.

His latest acrobatic throw has certainly raised excitement among fans and intensified the competition for his position, especially for rivals Maduka Okoye and Amas Obasogie who are eager to earn a place in the national squad. Despite Okoye’s impressive performances for Udinese this season, he still finds himself overshadowed by Nwabali.

Enthusiastic fans took to social media to commend Nwabali’s all-around skills, with remarks such as, “Every day you give the other Super Eagles goalkeepers more reason to be on the bench. Wicked,” and “Number 1 for a reason,” emphasizing the growing confidence in his abilities.

The Super Eagles are currently in Cote d’Ivoire, gearing up for crucial matches against Benin Republic and Rwanda, needing just one point to secure qualification for AFCON 2025. With Nwabali’s recent form and self-assurance, there are high expectations for him to maintain his outstanding performances on the global stage.
