The March international break brought mixed fortunes for Nigeria’s Super Eagles in their World Cup qualifiers. They battled to a hard-fought win over Rwanda but were later held to a frustrating home draw by Zimbabwe, as reported by Soccernet.ng.

With club football resuming, Nigerian stars delivered standout performances across Europe and beyond.

Despite being overlooked for Nigeria’s World Cup qualifiers, Osho showcased his quality with a commanding display in Auxerre’s 1-0 win over Montpellier. The defender was rock-solid, winning all his ground duels, making four tackles, and completing 96% of his passes. No Montpellier attacker got past him as Auxerre secured their third clean sheet in five games, moving up to tenth in Ligue 1.
