Sunday Oliseh, a former Nigerian international, has singled out Super Eagles goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali for praise following his team’s Wednesday 2023 Africa Cup of Nations semi-final victory over South Africa under coach Jose Peseiro.
Oliseh praised Nwabali’s poise in the face of the Bafana Bafana, saying, “A new hero is born.”
“Nwabali ! Nwabali !! Nwabali !!! After Osimhen’s 5 star performance, another hero is born! What composure, belief in God and a reassuring Smile by our Naija goalkeeper to send us to the AFCON Final,” Oliseh wrote on his X account.
“Now I can face my FIFA colleagues with a smile .. lol.”
Recall that Nwabali gave such a spectacular display on Wednesday during the Super Eagles’ semi-final encounter against South Africa.
Following 120 minutes of regular play, the score was tied at 1-1, but Nigeria won 4-2 thanks to Nwabali’s two saves in the penalty shootout.
