WATCH: Victor Oshimen shows Chelsea what they're missing as he doubles Super Eagles lead against Cheetahs
Oshimen doubled Nigeria's lead against the Cheeters of Benin Republic in the African Cup of Nations qualifiers.
Both Boniface and Osimhen were in action as the Super Eagles of Nigeria thrashed the Cheetahs of Benin Republic 3-0 at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium in Uyo.
Boniface led the Super Eagles attack and played over 70 minutes but couldn't find the back of the net. Enter Victor Osimhen.
It only took Oshimen just six minutes after his introduction to score his 22nd goal for the Super Eagles and give Nigeria a two-goal cushion against Benin Republic.
Victor Osimhen recently joined Galatasaray from Napoli on loan after a dramatic transfer window while Boniface is well-settled in Germany with Bayer Leverkusen.
