Usor vows to deliver for Nigeria

Forward Moses Usor made an immediate impact on his Nigeria debut, scoring the winning goal in the Super Eagles' 2-1 comeback victory over Madagascar in their opening 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier in Uyo. The 24-year-old forward, who had previously been invited to the Super Eagles squad for the 2026 Unity Cup but was unable to honor the call-up due to injury, expressed his joy at making his long-awaited debut alongside players he had admired.

Usor acknowledged that Nigerians will now expect more from him, stating that he wants to be like Simon Orban, a Super Eagles invitee, and add to the attacking force. His impressive introduction is expected to earn him a starting role as the Super Eagles target a second consecutive victory in their next qualifier against Guinea-Bissau.
