‘ He doesn’t play like that for the Eagles – Nigerian fans react to Samuel Chukwueze’s man of the match performance vs Real Madrid
Samuel Chukwueze scored two goals and assisted one in Villareal’s 2-3 La Liga win over Real Madrid on Saturday night. In reaction to the feat, Nigerian fans have said the 23-year old doesn’t play like that with the Eagles.
Super Eagles winger Chukwueze scored twice to inflict a further blow on Real Madrid’s title hopes as they were beaten 2-3 at home in LaLiga on Saturday despite twice taking the lead at the Santiago Bernabeu.
It was a man of the match performance for the Nigerian who scored the Yellow Submarines first and third goal to seal all three points.
In their separate reactions on social media to the result, some Nigerian fans questioned the wingers commitment and contributions when representing the Nigeria National team, especially in the double-header vs Guinea-Bissau.

@Smitter Illustrations came up with a defense for Chukweze when he wrote ” Peeps don’t blame him for scoring at Villareal, we have shitty midfielders in the super eagles”
@Adegunde Adebayo Opeyemi ” Na only their club them dey score for, if na super eagle he no go see anything offer “
@CaptainEdet D LaffCommanda ” My problem be say why we no Dey see dem for National Team.”
@Jerry Slyvanus ” He doesn’t play like that for the Eagles. For me it’s down to commitment before we consider other factors.
@Williams Frosh Ikpeoha gave a detailed response to the issues ” Tell your country to get them a better pitch to perform in or do you think it’s a miracle Morocco is doing well on the international stage. You can’t give what you don’t have. It’s about time we face the fact. Nigeria players are doing incredibly well this season for their clubs bcos they play in a better environment. “
