How Ben Iroha went from Super Eagles star at USA ’94 to Dallas businessman

Super Eagles' defender Semi Ajayi received high praise for his performance during Hull City's 2-2 draw against Chelsea in the Premier League on Saturday. With Hull City currently sitting in third place in the league table, Ajayi's efforts were crucial in securing a hard-fought home draw at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea took an early lead with a goal from Morgan Rogers in the seventh minute, but Hull quickly responded.

Mohamed Belloumi scored twice, putting Hull ahead 2-1 by half-time. Chelsea made a late comeback, with João Pedro equalising in the 66th minute. Despite conceding their first goals of the new Premier League season, Ajayi's defensive display was commended by Joel Ward, who noted that the former Arsenal youth player covered significant ground to prevent Malo Gusto from scoring the late winner.

Ajayi has been a regular starter for Hull City in all four of their matches this season and scored their opening goal in a 2-0 victory against Manchester United.
