People are talking about Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen on social media after a video of him playing table tennis with teammate Adeleye came out. They were doing this before Nigeria's future FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Benin and Lesotho.
A lot of Super Eagles players are in camp getting ready for their next games. They include Osimhen, Lookman, Iwobi, Bassey, Adeleye, and others. Benin will play Nigeria four days after Lesotho. The first game is in South Africa on Friday, October 10, 2025.
The short video that has been going around the internet shows the Galatasaray forward in a good mood, joking around while showing off his ping-pong skills at the team camp.
During this break, the Super Eagles play two very important games against Benin and Lesotho. The two games will play a big role in the Super Eagles' chances of making it to the 2026 FIFA World Cup, which will be held in the USA, Canada, and Mexico.
The Super Eagles had already given up on qualifying for the 2026 World Cup, but they got a big boost when FIFA took 3 points away from the group leader, South Africa, because they played Teboho Mokoena, who wasn't allowed to play. Nigerians were worried because they need their best striker to be healthy for the two games. They told the energetic striker to be careful and not take any needless risks before the important games.
Since then, people have responded to the video. Some have told Osimhen and his coworkers to pay attention to the future games.
