Benin Republic head coach, Gernot Rohr, has admitted his team could not stop Ademola Lookman in their 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier in Uyo.
The Atalanta winger fired a brace as the Super Eagles trampled on the Cheetahs 3-0 in the matchday one encounter.
Lookman dribbled past three Cheetahs defenders before slotting home Nigeria’s opener in first half stoppage time.
The 26-year-old nodded home the Super Eagles third goal eight minutes from time.
“I am not surprised by the result as I know the talent and potential of this team,” Rohr said after the match.
“They played with confidence and flair, and Ademola Lookman was unstoppable.”
