AFCON Qualifier: Orban to ruled out from Nigeria vs Sao Tome clash
Gift Orban, the promising 21-year-old striker from Gent, has been ruled out of Nigeria’s crucial 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Sao Tome and Principe. Orban’s absence was conspicuous during the team’s final training session at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo on Saturday night.
Unfortunately, Orban sustained an injury during the Super Eagles’ training session on Friday, rendering him unable to join his teammates on the pitch for the upcoming match. This setback has forced him to postpone his anticipated debut for the three-time African champions.
While Gift Orban faces disappointment, the spotlight now turns to the other new invitees, Victor Boniface and Jordan Torunarigha, who are expected to potentially make their debut appearances against Sao Tome and Principe as they aim to contribute to the team’s success against the True Patriots.
