It was a good weekend for Nigeria in the English

Premier League as Super Eagles duo of Mikel Obi

and Odion Ighalo attained new heights with their

respective clubs. Odion Ighalo struck in the 2-2

draw with Chelsea to become the first ever

Watford player to score in five consecutive

English topflight games.

Mikel Obi entered the record books in the same

game when he came off the bench in the 46th

minute to make his 350th appearance in blue,

the 21st player to do so. Also, the feat makes

him the club's third-highest overseas appearance

maker since his move from Lyn Oslo in 2006.
