The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has praised Ademola Lookman following the Super Eagles’ 3-0 victory over Benin Republic in Saturday’s 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier.
Lookman delivered an outstanding performance, netting two goals to help Augustine Eguavoen’s team secure the win at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo.
Victor Osimhen also contributed with a goal during the match.
The Atalanta forward’s impressive display earned him the Man of the Match award as Nigeria collected all three points against Gernot Rohr’s squad.
Following the game, CAF shared a tweet on its X account featuring a photo of Lookman, saying,
“What a week Ademola Lookman is having.
“Earlier in the week, Lookman was named among the top 30 players in the world, having been shortlisted for the Ballon d’Or.
