Should Ghana be concerned about Victor Osimhen’s present form as the Nigerian camp prepares for the crucial derby against the Black Stars?

Many Nigerians aspire and desire of seeing the Super Eagles beat their arch rivals to qualify for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.

Victor Osimhen

The Playoff match to determine who will represent the United States at the World Cup has been heavily laden with tensions and excitement.

Without a doubt, the recent performances of one of the Super Eagles’ most dangerous attacking threats has piqued Nigerian fans’ interest.

Victor Osimhen has made a strong comeback following a devastating facial injury that forced him to withdraw from Afcon 2021 and put a halt to his promising football career.

The striker has made a strong comeback and has now become the talk of the town.

The 23-year-old’s brace against Udinese earned him four goals in two games, keeping the Naples in good position for their first Serie A trophy.

The Napoli point man also became the first Nigerian to bag double figures in two consecutive Serie A seasons he has featured, as well as the fourth African to do so.

Outside the glittering stats, its way too obvious that Osimhen is back to his best as everyone can clearly see that explosive surge of speed, lethal movement, selfless running, and relentless forward play.

Despite wearing a safety mask, Osimhen has managed to head in six goals in the 2022 campaign,, which should pique the curiosity of Super Eagle’s gaffer – Augustine Eguavoen, who like to play from the sides.

Osimhen will surely be a hard nut to crack after becoming the Super Eagles’ leading scorer in 2021 with five goals and two assists in eight appearances.

I said after the afcon that our biggest undoing was our lack of squad depth.

It's good to see we have improved on that especially with Amoo and Lookman, the two players I wanted.

2 more days to go.
Bring on Ghana on Friday.
We are ready! https://t.co/MBewrsFbSD

Nigeria’s hot-shot striker is in top form ahead of probably their most important match in years.

So, should Ghanaian defenders be concerned about a long 180-minute contest against the Eagles, especially with Osimhen as the point man?
