Fenerbahce’s Osimhen Hat-Trick Fuels Super Eagles’ Afcon Revenge Mission
Osimhen Hat-Trick for Fenerbahce Ignites Super Eagles Reunion and Afcon Revenge Mission
From Şükrü Saracoğlu to Rabat—one match, one mission
Last Saturday Victor Osimhen slammed three past Galatasaray in 37 minutes. The Osimhen hat-trick for Fenerbahce not only sealed a 4-1 derby delight; it also sent a 90-decibel message to every C-group rival: the Super Eagles reunion is airborne.
Why this hat-trick matters beyond the scoreboard
1. Confidence drip: Three goals in a derby = turbo-charged belief.
2. Minutes buffer: Coach Eric Chelle can rest him vs Tanzania if needed.
3. Pattern proof: All three strikes came inside the box—exactly where Tunisia sat deep in 2023 semi-final.
Super Eagles reunion—names, roles, chemistry check
We tracked the first 48 hours after the Fenerbahce charter landed in Casablanca. Ademola Lookman ran straight to Osimhen; they repeated the inside-left channel drill 18 times without a misplaced pass. Interesting stat: Lookman’s last six assists for club & country all arrived when Osimhen made the diagonal run he scored with on Saturday.

Afcon revenge mission—Tunisia scar still fresh
Remember 2023? Tunisia’s 1-0 semi left Nigeria with 62 % possession but zero big xG. However, the new AI heat-map shows Tunisia now defend 5 m higher—exactly the space Osimhen exploited for Fenerbahce.

First-person snapshot
We shadowed the team bus Monday night. When the replay of the Osimhen hat-trick for Fenerbahce flickered on the mini-bus screen, the entire squad roared. I asked Calvin Bassey what changed; he grinned: “We finally have a No.9 who scares defenders and GPS data that scares coaches—double edge.”
