Adams, Ejuke fire AFCON warning with goals for Sevilla

Super Eagles Players

Akor Adams and Chidera Ejuke sent a strong message ahead of the AFCON by scoring in Sevilla’s commanding 4-0 victory over Real Oviedo in the Spanish La Liga. This performance highlights their readiness to contribute significantly to the national team following their selection for Nigeria’s AFCON squad.

Sevilla ended a challenging spell of three consecutive La Liga defeats with an impressive display. After an initially tense phase, Adams set the stage for victory by expertly converting a well-placed pass from Lucien Agouma. He also played a crucial role in the build-up to Djibril Sow’s goal, helping to double Sevilla’s lead midway through the first half.

Adams continued to be a driving force, nearly scoring again and assisting Batista Mendy’s goal early in the second half. His energetic performance was vital, as he had several opportunities to secure a hat-trick. Meanwhile, Real Oviedo faced their seventh red card of the season, underscoring their ongoing disciplinary challenges.

Chidera Ejuke rounded off the match with a spectacular solo goal just before stoppage time. With Sevilla moving back into the top half of the league, Oviedo remains in the relegation zone, winless in their last nine matches. The contributions of Adams and Ejuke could prove essential for Nigeria’s AFCON campaign as the team prepares for the challenges that lie ahead.
