2022 FIFA WCQ: Some fans shocked to see Odion Ighalo named in Nigeria's squad to face Ghana

Some football fans are shocked to see Odion Ighalo named in Nigeria's squad to face Ghana in the upcoming 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifiers later this month.

The Al-Hilal forward is part of the 32-man squad named by coach Augustine Eguavoen ahead of the crucial doubleheader.

Nigeria will open their training camp in the city of Abuja on March 21 before they travel to Cape Coast four days later to take on the Black Stars.

The reverse fixture is scheduled to take place at Abuja's Moshood Abiola National Stadium on March 29.

The winner over the two legs will qualify for the World Cup to be played in Qatar later this year.

Here are some comments from fans following the inclusion of the former Manchester United forward:

“Of what use is Ighalo,” writes @SkeiRipper.

“This forced attempt to have Ighalo in the team and drop Taiwo Awoniyi is distasteful.” AdewoleSite.

“I expect Musa, Ighalo, Onazi should have played their testimonial matches by now,” another writes.
