Morocco Coach Sounds Alarm: Nigeria’s Iwobi, Osimhen & Lookman Are Real Threats Ahead of AFCON Semis!

By DailySports Nigeria on January 14, 2026

A detailed explanation of why people dream about writing exams or returning to school or eating, crying, seeing snakes has been published on NewsVista .

Morocco’s head coach Walid Regragui has singled out three Nigerian stars as major threats ahead of their Africa Cup of Nations 2025 semifinal clash. At a press conference, Regragui praised Alex Iwobi, Victor Osimhen, and Ademola Lookman for their deadly impact on the Super Eagles’ offense.

Though Nigeria’s captain Wilfred Ndidi will miss the match due to suspension, Regragui acknowledged the attacking trio’s influence—Osimhen and Lookman combined have contributed to 13 of Nigeria’s 14 tournament goals, while Iwobi’s playmaking adds vital creativity.

“We’re relieved Ndidi is out, but with players like Osimhen, Lookman, and Iwobi, plus a strong bench, Nigeria remains dangerous,” Regragui warned.

Raphael Onyedika is set to replace Ndidi, aiming to bolster Nigeria’s midfield in this high-stakes showdown in Rabat.
