The reason behind the outburst isn’t clear, but Lookman had made one assisted Osimhen’s goal before the outburst broke out.
BBNaija star Tacha has hit back at Nigerians criticizing Victor Osimhen over his on-pitch confrontation with teammate Ademola Lookman during Nigeria’s 4–0 Africa Cup of Nations victory against Mozambique on January 5.
The reason behind the outburst isn’t clear, but Lookman had made one assisted Osimhen’s goal before the outburst broke out.
While Osimhen charged at Lookman, the latter kept his cool.
Many Nigerians took to social media to slam Osimhen over his action.
Berating those criticizing Osimhen, Tacha in a post shared on her X-handle said the reason behind the criticism is because they have seen Osimhen ‘’finish''.
She asked if Nigerians realize that Osimhen is the Cristiano Ronaldo in the Super Eagles. She further asked if Nigerians would have criticized Ronaldo if he did the same thing Osimhen did.
