Bassey and Iwobi shine in Fulham rout
But it was the performances of Iwobi and Bassey that will have most pleased the Nigerian faithful watching on.

The 27-year-old has been rejuvenated since his exploits at the Africa Cup of Nations, cementing his place as one of the Premier League's most creative forces.

Not only did he lay on the assist for Lukic's third goal, but the Nigerian international also struck the woodwork himself as he continued pushing for attacking returns.
Bassey's rock-solid defensive contributions also helped Silva's side keep yet another clean sheet as they tightened their grip in midtable.

The duo's eye-catching displays only further highlight their outstanding status as two of Nigerian football's elite performers on the global stage right now.
If Iwobi and Bassey can maintain these career-best levels, they look set to be talismanic figures for the Super Eagles in their upcoming AFCON and World Cup qualifying campaigns.
