Iwobi Highlights Differences in Playing for Nigeria vs. England

Alex Iwobi, a midfielder for the Super Eagles, shared his experiences contrasting playing for England at various youth levels and representing Nigeria at the senior level. He mentioned the challenges Nigerian players face, such as booking their own flights and dealing with power outages, which can affect their stay in hotels.
