Super Eagles forward Ademola Lookman has etched his name into the history books at the ongoing Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) in Morocco.
Lookman achieved the feat following Nigeria’s emphatic 4–0 victory over Mozambique in the Round of 16. The Atalanta star delivered a standout performance, scoring one goal and registering three assists against the Mambas.
With that display, Lookman has now recorded three goals and four assists in just three matches, making him the player with the highest goal contributions at the tournament so far.
Data from Opta further highlights his impact, confirming that Lookman is the first player since the 2010 AFCON to register multiple assists in more than one match at the competition.
The Nigerian forward had earlier supplied two assists in the Super Eagles’ 3–2 group-stage win over Tunisia, underlining his influential role in Nigeria’s AFCON campaign.
