Paul Onuachu has been on the lips of

his second appearance for the country
within the space of four days, scored a

the Egyptian defenders - winning free
kicks, completing dribbles and passes, as

performance.

The FC Mitdjland center-forward
exclusively revealed to Legit.ng the most
difficult defender he has ever faced in
his career.
"I've played against a lot of players, some
you remember, sometime you don't
remember and most of them are tough.
"But I remember I played against Napoli
defender Kalidou Koulibaly. We played
against them in Naples, I'll say he is one
of the toughest defender I've played
against," he told LegitSports.
Metronaija reporter then teased the striker
if he does not mind playing against
Senegalese at the AFCON 2019
tournament in Egypt in June, Onuachu
said:
"It does not matter for me because I
played against him three years back, so if
I face him again, of course anything can
happen in football."
