Anayo Iwuala continues to flourish in Kuwait, and on Monday evening, his brilliance powered Al Arabi into the Crown Prince Cup final after a nail-biting 1-0 semi-final win over Al Qadsia at the Mohammed Al Hamad Stadium.
The 26-year-old winger—already making a name for himself since joining the Kuwaiti side—stepped up when it mattered most, Footballrover reports.
Anayo Iwuala magic sends Al Arabi into Cup Final
Just before the half-hour mark, Iwuala showed why he’s quickly becoming a fan favourite.
With a slick cut-back that left his marker off the way, the Super Eagles star spotted Komail Al Aswad charging into the box.
His perfectly timed pass allowed Al Aswad to slot the ball calmly into the bottom corner—what turned out to be the match-winner.
This crucial win marks another chapter in Iwuala’s ongoing impact at Al Arabi, who are now unbeaten in three straight matches.
They’ve also won four of their last five games, showing renewed hunger and discipline—qualities their Nigerian playmaker has brought to the team.
His five international caps for Nigeria may not tell the whole story, but Iwuala’s performances in Kuwait certainly do.
With eight league goals already under his belt, he’s not just creating moments—he’s defining them.
Al Arabi in Cup Final, but league race heats up
While the Cup final now awaits, there’s little time for rest.

With only two points separating Al Arabi from table-toppers Al Kuwait, the stakes couldn’t be higher.
For Anayo Iwuala, the mission is clear—keep creating, keep scoring, and help Al Arabi chase glory on both fronts.
