The 28-year-old forward, who formed part of his country's Afcon 2013-winning team, has now become an international centurion

Ahmed Musa has won his milestone 100th Nigeria cap in their World Cup qualification clash with Cape Verde on Tuesday.

Musa was expectedly selected to start in Mindelo as the Super Eagles hope to boost their chances of qualifying for Qatar 2022 against Bubista’s Blue Sharks.

After representing the country at youth level, the speedy forward made his senior debut on August 5, 2010, in the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Madagascar – coming in as a substitute for ex-Chelsea star John Obi Mikel in the 2-0 win.
