OSIMHEN SHADES IKPEBA OVER BICYCLE KICK COMMENTS

Super Eagles and Napoli striker, Victor Osimhen has thrown shades at ex-Super Eagles striker and former African footballer of the year, Victor Ikpeba for saying he would have scored against Ghana at the FIFA World Cup Qualifiers against their West African rivals in Abuja


The Super Eagles of Nigeria failed to qualify for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar after playing 1-1 against Ghana in Abuja on Tuesday, 29th March, 2022. The former Borussia Dortmund and Monaco striker believed that Osimhen would have scored, if he had controlled a chance that fell to him on one of the occasions he decided on bicycle kick which went wide.

In reaction, Osimhen had taken to his Twitter and Instagram page to shade “the Prince of Monaco” by saying in Yoruba “adie funfun ko mo ara re lagba” which indicates Ikpeba does not know his respectable position.


On Osimhen’s instagram handle, the Super Falcons’ Barcelona Femenine striker responded to join in the shading, by jokingly telling Osimhen that “Werey dem say mk u no dey do bicycle kick” meaning, “mad guy, you have been warned to stop doing bicycle kick”, to which Osimhen responded “I go continue dey do am, no be that pundit go tell me wetin to do…AGBAYA”.



What do you think? Do you think Ikpeba is right?

ALL THE PREMIER LEAGUE TRANSFERS

all the premier league transfers for 2017/2018 summer The 2017/2018 Transfer Summer window is closed, every teams experience the natural tradition of influx and exodus of players. The strength and chances of teams in the Premier League and any competition whatsoever are judged based on the quality in their squad and the business they transact in the summer. I guess that explains the reason teams like Liverpool held on to Philippe Coutinho and Southampton would not change their decision over Virgil van Dijk despite genuine interests from teams like Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester United and Arsenal. When the transfer window opened, there were occurrences that we all expected, such as there would be record breaking deals, shocking deals, overrated players, lingering deals, deadline day drama. The outgone transfer window did live up to expectation. Even though the English Premier League was not involved in the most expensive transfers of the Summer, the English League stil...
