Even Ronaldo and Messi Don’t Behave Like That-Fan Blasts Osimhen
|

Victor Osimhen may have helped Nigeria secure a crucial 2-1 win over Lesotho in their World Cup qualifier, but his post-match reaction has stirred controversy online. Instead of celebrating the hard-fought victory with fans, the Napoli striker appeared visibly angry and refused to acknowledge supporters — a move that didn’t sit well with many viewers.
One particularly furious fan took to social media, saying that “Even Ronaldo and Messi don’t have such a dirty attitude. They respect their fans, win or lose. Osimhen needs to calm down!”

According to eyewitnesses , Osimhen walked straight into the tunnel without waving or clapping towards the Nigerian crowd , despite their loud chants of support throughout the game . Some reports claim he was frustrated with the team’s performance and the late goal conceded — but fans insist that professionalism should come first .
While many defended him , arguing that his passion for winning sometimes gets misunderstood , others warned that arrogance could damage his growing legacy .

Supporters are now calling on the Super Eagles’ coaching staff to address the issue before it escalates further , reminding players that national team football is not just about results — it’s about connection with the people.
