Former Super Eagles captain Sunday Oliseh has claimed that Morocco would have secured a convincing 3-1 victory over Brazil if they had players of the quality of Victor Osimhen or Ademola Lookman in their ranks.
Speaking after the entertaining World Cup clash between both sides, Oliseh praised Morocco’s impressive display and insisted that the Atlas Lions created enough chances to punish the five-time world champions. However, he noted that the North Africans lacked a clinical finisher capable of converting those opportunities into goals.
According to the former Nigeria international, the presence of Osimhen or Lookman would have significantly altered the outcome of the encounter. He argued that both Super Eagles stars possess the attacking qualities and composure needed to capitalize on the chances Morocco generated throughout the match.
Furthermore, Oliseh highlighted the growing reputation of Nigerian forwards on the global stage. Osimhen and Lookman have enjoyed remarkable seasons for their respective clubs, earning widespread recognition for their goalscoring abilities and overall impact in attack.
Meanwhile, Morocco continued to demonstrate why they remain one of Africa’s strongest teams. Their performance against Brazil once again underlined their tactical discipline and attacking intent, even though they failed to secure maximum points.
Oliseh’s comments have since sparked discussions among football fans, with many debating whether the Super Eagles duo would indeed have made the decisive difference against the South American giants.
