NFF set to honour Moses Simon on 100th Super Eagles cap vs Madagascar Friday

Moses Simon will be honoured by the Nigeria Football Federation if he earns his 100th Super Eagles cap in Friday’s 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Madagascar. The Paris FC winger made his debut for the Eagles in March 2015, coming on as a substitute against Uganda’s Cranes. At 31, he has appeared in 99 internationals—64 competitive and 35 friendly matches—scoring 11 times. His record includes 23 AFCON final appearances and 22 World Cup qualifying games. The NFF plans a special recognition should Simon reach the milestone on September 27, 2026, marking a decade of service to the national team. The honour would place him alongside a select group of Nigerian players who have reached triple-figure caps. Fans and analysts view the milestone as testament to his consistency and importance to Nigeria’s attacking options over multiple tournaments. Will you be watching the match to witness Simon’s historic cap, and what does his longevity mean for the future of Super Eagles wing play?
