Zimbabwe defender Jordan Zemura has emphasised the importance of stopping Super Eagles key players Victor Osimhen and Ademola Lookman.
Osimhen and Lookman have been in impressive form for their respective clubs this season.
The duo played a crucial role in Nigeria’s 2-0 victory over Rwanda last Friday, with Osimhen scoring a brace and Lookman providing an assist.
Zemura, who plays for Serie A club Udinese, stated that his team must find a way to keep both players quiet.
“They are unbelievable players, both of them. Lookman at Atalanta is a very, very talented player, and we all know Victor Osimhen as one of the best strikers in the world. Playing against them at club level is already very difficult,” the left-back said ahead of the game.
“There’s a lot of focus on these players because of their quality and how effective they are in matches. It’s the same with the national team—they are both very dangerous, and keeping them quiet will be a challenge, but we are ready for it and will do everything we can.”
