Ademola Lookman has been exceptional for the Super Eagles of Nigeria at AFCON 2023, outshining star striker Victor Osimhen.
Lookman has scored 3 goals at AFCON 2023, lifting the Super Eagles of Nigeria over Cameroon and Angola, to book a place in the semi-finals.
We look at three reasons why the Atalanta man has been on fire, compared to Victor Osimhen who has scored just once in 5 games.
Lookman starts the game stationed on the inside left of a three-pronged attack alongside Osimhen and Moses Simon, but the 24-year-old has the freedom to drift around the pitch looking for pockets of space to do damage.

However, Osimhen, being the danger-man, remains under the watchful eye of the defenders, with little space to operate which often leaves him isolated and unable to impact the game like we know he can.
