Abu Azeez hit a landmark of 103 goals in Beach Soccer on Wednesday as he helped the Super Sand Eagles secure a spot in the final of the CAF Beach Soccer Africa Cup of Nations.
Abu Azeez netted a haul in Nigeria’s 7-6 win over host nation Egypt, who were undefeated until the semis, at the Laguna Vista in Sharm El-Sheikh. At the last edition of the Beach Soccer AFCON he managed only four goals as Nigeria finished as runner-up behind Senegal. So far he has notched up 7 goals, six shy of his tournament high 13 goals scored in 2013, at the sixth edition of the competition. He celebrated the milestone 100th goal with a picture of his famous number 8 jersey accompanied with the caption: Thank you Nigerians for the support,double celebration for me,qualifying for the world cup next year in paraguay and reaching my 100 beachsoccer goals,such a great feat,thank you to my coaches and all my team matesWednesday’s semi-final victory also secured Nigeria one of Africa’s only two world cup tickets for the 2019 FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup in Paraguay.Thank you Nigerians for the support,double celebration for me,qualifying for the world cup next year in paraguay and reaching my 100 beachsoccer goals,such a great feat,thank you to my coaches and all my team mates pic.twitter.com/VfdFpQYqSl
