Super Eagles first choice goalkeeper, Francis Uzoho has joined his new club, Elche CF, and after passing his medicals earlier in the week, the youngster jumped right into training with the La Liga B side.
Uzoho tweeted a photo of himself in his first training session, but it got fans asking what happened next?
The youngster posted a picture of himself in full stretch, as he attempts a save. He watches the ball sail after he got a hand to it, but did it hit the back of the net or did he manage to keep it out?

Uzoho is touted to be one of Africa’s rising stars and at just 19, he is perhaps, Nigeria’s youngest first choice goalkeeper.
He’s expected to be between the sticks when the Super Eagles play away to the Pirates of Seychelles in next month’s Africa Cup of Nations qualifying match.
