The Nigeria Super Eagles are soaring higher than most expected tonight as they beat Iceland 2-0 in a group game at the ongoing 2018 World Cup in Russia.
The two winning goals were scored by striker, Ahmed Musa at the 49th and 74th minute making him the first Nigerian to score a goal at the 2018 World Cup.
Nigerians are super ecstatic about the outcome of the game considering our poor outing at the first group game against Croatia; these are the best reactions on Twitter tonight:
This Twitter user @tolulopesaba predicted the Super Eagles victory:
Nigeria is going to play Iceland 2-0.
At least that’s what my dream said. I’m not sure who won but the same person scored both goals.— Tolulope (@tolusaba) June 22, 2018

President Buhari should be very very afraid in 2019, he has a strong contender in Ahmed Musa:

Because Reno Omokri makes everything awkward… please don’t make this about President Buhari
Ahmed Musa has brought more joy to Nigerians in 90 minutes than Buhari has brought to Nigeria in three years. No blame game. No excuses. The guy just scored. And to prove it was not a fluke, he scored again.
