Finidi Heir Why Super Eagles Star Invokes God After Matching LaLiga Goal Milestone

Finidi Heir Why Super Eagles Star Invokes God After Matching LaLiga Goal Milestone Super Eagles striker Akor Adams has invoked God after reaching a major LaLiga milestone, following his match-winning performance for Sevilla in the Spanish top flight. The Nigerian forward delivered another heroic display as Sevilla staged a dramatic 3-2 comeback victory against Villarreal at the Estadio de la Cerámica. Adams scored the decisive goal with a stunning left-footed strike to complete the turnaround and secure a crucial win for his side. The goal marked Adams’ 10th LaLiga strike of the season, making him only the fourth Nigerian player in history to score double-digit goals in a single Spanish top-flight campaign. The achievement places him alongside legendary Super Eagles stars such as Finidi George and Ikechukwu Uche. Following the historic feat, the 26-year-old striker took to social media to express gratitude to God for his impressive run of form and career breakthrough. On his X account, Adams posted in Pidgin English: “Baba na you do this one,” attributing his success to divine intervention. He also shared a faith-inspired message on Instagram, writing: “For with God all things are possible for them that believe!” as fans and teammates celebrated his remarkable season. Adams’ achievement has also ended a 12-year wait for a Nigerian player to score 10 or more goals in a single LaLiga season. Before him, the last Nigerian to hit the milestone was Ikechukwu Uche during the 2013/2014 campaign. The in-form striker has become a key figure in Sevilla’s resurgence, scoring decisive late goals in consecutive matches to help steer the club away from relegation danger. His recent performances have further strengthened his growing reputation as one of Nigeria’s brightest attacking talents. With two league games remaining, Adams is now within touching distance of surpassing Finidi George’s tally of 11 goals in a single LaLiga season, potentially cementing his place among the greatest Nigerian forwards to play in Spain.
