Arsenal, Chelsea and Leicester City have reacted to Nigeria’s 1-0 win over Egypt on Tuesday.

The club monitored proceedings at the Stephen Keshi Stadium, Asaba, Delta State.

Also Danish club, FC Midtjylland officially reacted to the Super Eagles win against the Pharoahs.

Chelsea wrote on their official website, ”Kenneth Omeruo was an unused sub as Nigeria beat Egypt in a friendly.

”The defender, on loan this season at Leganes in La Liga, had featured in a 3-1 win over Seychelles in African Cup of Nations qualifying on Friday. Ola Aina pulled out of the squad through injury.”

Arsenal, having two of their players on the pitch, wrote, ”Elneny and Iwobi then went on to face each other in a friendly on Tuesday night, with the latter coming out on top.

”Paul Onuachu’s first minute strike is all that separated the two sides.”

Leicester City wrote, ‘Wilfred Ndidi, who helped Nigeria overcome Seychelles on Friday, earned his 24th cap as the Super Eagles beat Egypt.

”The 22-year-old midfielder played the full game as Paul Onuachu’s first-minute goal gave the Nigerians victory.”

FC Midtjylland, “Paul Onuachu has scored a dream goal in his first start for Nigeria. The goal is even the fastest in Nigerian national team history.”
