Two-time African Player of the Year Nwankwo Kanu failed to register a goal and the AFCON and now Victor Osimhen is also not finding the tournament a favourite hunting ground.
The second all-time leading scorer of the Super Eagles with 31 goals has only netted once in nine appearances at the AFCON.
His one and only strike was a group game against Equatorial Guinea at the 2023 AFCON in Cote d’Ivoire.
His poor goals return could be attributed to bad luck and already that again appears to be the case in Morocco after his second-half effort against Tanzania earlier this week was chalked off for offside by VAR.
It was by the smallest of margins.
Tomorrow night also in Fes, he will hope his fortunes change for the better as the Super Eagles battle Tunisia for the leadership of Group C.
