Ahmed Musa said he felt on top of the World yesterday scoring two goals in a match sharing the spoils with world’s most dreaded player, Messi. ‘’I feel so happy scoring two goals against a Messi-inspired team.

Above all, I am happier that we have qualified for the second round. We are going to improve more in the second round. I know that it is not easy. But we are determined to do better than we did in previous World Cup’, an overwhelmed Musa said moments after the World Cup match.
