Iwobi Makes 100th Super Eagles Appearance Against Portugal
Fulham midfielder Alex Iwobi becomes only the fourth Nigerian to reach 100 caps when he plays against Portugal in Leiria Wednesday, joining Joseph Yobo, Vincent Enyeama and Ahmed Musa in exclusive club. The 30-year-old, who debuted in October 2015 against DR Congo, said 'I am proud to wear the green-and-white' and has no regrets choosing Nigeria over England where he played youth football. His most memorable moment remains the winning goal against Zambia in 2017 that secured Nigeria's qualification for the 2018 World Cup. Iwobi has featured in four AFCON tournaments (silver in 2023, bronze in 2019 and 2025) and the 2018 World Cup. His father, former footballer Chuka Iwobi, praised Alex's commitment and patriotism over the past decade. Will you watch this milestone match and celebrate one of Nigeria's most dedicated international servants?
