The fine form of Nigeria U20 forward Ademola Ola-Adebomi at Crystal Palace continued in the Premier League 2 as he was once again on target as his team claimed a 2-1 over Chelsea.
In a game where aside from Ola-Adebomi, four other players of Nigerian descent in David Ozoh, Owen Goodman, Victor Akinwale and Tayo Adaramola started for Palace, it was the striker who stole the show.
19 year old Ola-Adebomi scored a brace in the last game against Arsenal to hand his side a 2-0 win and he was once again the guy to power his team to another win by drawing his side level in the 39th minute.
He trained with the Nigeria U20 team ahead of the Africa U20 Cup of Nations but didn’t make the team for the tournament, with the coaches complaining of not having enough time to assess him due to the limited break he was granted to be at the camp.
Head coach of the Nigeria U20 team Ladan Bosso is open to having the striker in his team for preparation for the World Cup with his team badly in need of a goal scorer. Already he has seven goals in seven starts. In total he has played 14 games this season.
