Former Super Eagles captain, Sunday Oliseh has insisted that Nigeria is not striker, Victor Osimhen.

Oliseh spoke ahead of Nigeria’s AFCON semi-final tie with Morocco on Wednesday.

According to him, the Nigerian team is made up of a solid eleven players, not Osimhen alone.

“Nigeria is not Osimhen,” Oliseh said on the Global Football Insights podcast.

“Nigeria is these eleven solid players. For the past 20 years, I have never seen a Nigerian Super Eagles team play the way this team has played against Uganda, Mozambique and Algeria.”

This is coming less than a few days after Osimhen’s recent on-field heated argument with teammate Ademola Lookman during Nigeria’s AFCON Round of 16 4-0 win against Mozambique.

Osimhen and Lookman have since settled and moved on as they featured together in Nigeria’s 2-0 win against Algeria in the quarter-final at the weekend.
