Following the excellent performance of Super Eagles against Liberia in the World Cup qualifiers, two major sponsors, 33 Export Larger Beer and GAC Motor have awarded Super Eagles duo Kelechi Iheanacho and Alex Iwobi a cash gift of one million naira each.
Leicester City forward Kelechi Iheanacho grabbed a first-half brace in the match to place the Super Eagles of Nigeria top of Group C which also has Cape Verde and the Central Africa Republic. Cape Verde and the Central Africa Republic shared points in their game which was played on Wednesday.
The former Manchester City star proved his goalscoring prowess, scoring in the 22nd and 44th minute of the first half, while Everton star playmaker Alex Iwobi was in the driving seat of almost every attack by the team, while also grabbing both assists for Iheanacho’s goals.
Consequently, Iheanacho was presented with a dummy cheque of N1m for being the Man of the Match by 33 Export Lager Beer, while Iwobi was named the Most Valuable Player of the match by GAC Motor. 33 Extra Lager Beer who has been a constant supporter of the National team has continued to keep on their support for the team.
