Yobo backs Iwobi to break Super Eagles' record

Former Super Eagles captain Joseph Yobo has expressed confidence that Alex Iwobi can surpass 130 appearances for Nigeria. Iwobi reached 100 caps in an international friendly against Portugal in June and is the fourth Nigerian player to do so, joining Yobo, Vincent Enyeama, and Ahmed Musa. Musa currently holds the record with 110 caps. Yobo, Nigeria's first centurion, said he wouldn't be surprised if Iwobi reached or exceeded 130 appearances, noting his continued high-level performance.
