Moses Simon Celebrates 100th Cap for Super Eagles
Moses Simon reached a significant milestone by making his 100th appearance for the Super Eagles during their 2-1 win over Madagascar in a 2027 AFCON qualifying match at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo. Simon, who plays for Paris FC, came on as a substitute for Akor Adams shortly after the half-hour mark.
This appearance made him the fifth Nigerian player to achieve 100 caps for the national team, joining Alex Iwobi as the second active player to reach this milestone. Simon debuted for the Super Eagles in 2015 after progressing from the U20 side.
Following the match, he expressed gratitude to the coaches, journalists, and supporters for their roles in his journey, stating that he never expected to reach 100 games but is committed to giving his all whenever called upon. The Super Eagles are set to face Guinea-Bissau in their next AFCON qualifying match.
