It's nice - Super Eagles' Alex Iwobi in sweet mood after ending preseason with two chip-assists

Fulham's Nigerian midfielder Alex Iwobi has continued his impressive preseason form, starring in the club's comfortable 2-0 victory over Bundesliga outfit Hoffenheim.

Iwobi was at the heart of Fulham's dominant display, providing two exquisite assists as the Cottagers rounded off their pre-season preparations in style.

The 28-year-old's first moment of magic came when he delicately chipped the ball over the Hoffenheim defence for new signing Emile Smith-Rowe to slot home.

Iwobi then repeated the trick, this time setting up fellow new arrival Adama Traore to double Fulham's lead.

"If I can't score, at least I am able to create chances for my teammates," Iwobi said after the match.

"And we have Smith-Rowe and Traore who will put them away. But it isn't just them - there are so many goal threats in the team."

Iwobi's impressive display comes off the back of him being named MVP during Fulham's pre-season tour of Portugal, underlining his growing influence under manager Marco Silva.

The Nigerian international's form will be a huge boost for Fulham as they prepare to embark on their Premier League campaign.

But it wasn't just Iwobi who was making headlines, as the Fulham star shared a touching moment with fellow Nigerians Calvin Bassey and Chidera Ejuke days before the game against their German counterparts.

Bassey and Ejuke, who recently joined LaLiga outfit Sevilla, joined Iwobi in the Sevilla dressing room after the match for a celebratory group photograph.

The trio's show of unity, despite representing rival clubs, serves as a heartwarming reminder of the strong bonds that exist between Nigerian footballers.

As the new season approaches, Iwobi, Bassey, and Ejuke will no doubt be aiming to continue flying the flag for Nigerian football on the biggest stages.
