Super Eagles captain, William Troost-Ekong has showered encomium on Victor Osimhen and Ademola Lookman following the team’s victory over Rwanda.

Osimhen scored both goals as the Super Eagles beat the Amavubi 2-0 at the Amahoro Stadium, Kigali on Friday night.

Lookman, who is currently Africa’s best player, also registered an assist in the game.

Troost-Ekong declared that the duo are among the best players in the world.

”Victor Osimhen is a fantastic player I think he’s among the world best together with Ademola Lookman, Africa’s best player but I don’t want to single out anyone,” the Al Kholood of Saudi Arabia defender told reporters after the game.

“Today’s performance was a collective performance, we had a debutant Tolu (Arokodare), we had players who came on and played out of position like Alhassan Yusuf, so there was a team spirit which we had already before.”

The win over Amavubi was the Super Eagles first in the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying series.

It was also the first time the three -time African champions will beat the Amavubi in Kigali in four attempts.

Troost-Ekong said they fought hard for the win.

“The game against Rwanda wasn’t easy, we’ve played them several times now and it’s a team we respect,” he added.

“We tried to understand what the coach wanted us to do early on, we only had two or three full training sessions, a lot of video sessions and today everyone saw glimpses of what we should be expecting under coach Eric Chelle.”
