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?

Let’s go find out what caused the death of “El Caballero del Futbol” (The gentleman of football). Coming to the 1994 FIFA World Cup in the United States, the Colombian team had been built to one of the strongest team in the World. They were so strong that the legendary Pele tipped them to make at least the Semifinal at the mundial. This was not an overstatement because in 26 matches leading to the 1994 World Cup, Colombia only lost a match out of 26. To prove further that they were contenders in the real sense of it, in the South America’s last World Cup qualifiers at Buenos Aires, the 1990 finalist and the host, Argentina needed a win against Colombia to qualify but were walloped 5-0 by th...
