Nigeria captain, Ahmed Musa, now holds the record for most
appearances made for the national team.
The 29-year-old has eclipsed Joseph Yobo and Vincent
Enyeama.
Musa reached this milestone after coming on to replace
Kelechi Iheanacho in the 86th minute of a 2022 World Cup qualifier against
Liberia on Saturday.
The winger had equalled Yobo and Enyeama’s record having
earned his 101st cap in the 2-0 win over the Central African Republic on
October 10.
Musa made his senior debut on August 5, 2010, in the 2012
Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Madagascar.
He scored his first goal for the Super Eagles in an
international friendly against Kenya in March 2011 and has played at two AFCON
tournaments as well as two FIFA World Cups
