Alex Iwobi: Super Eagles Star ‘destroys’ two Liverpool stars with sublime Okocha esque skills, check out video

Super Eagles star Alex Iwobi channelled his inner Austin Jay Jay Okocha to dribble past two Liverpool stars in Fulham's loss at Anfield on Sunday.

Iwobi has struggled for form since joining Fulham from Everton in the summer, but has recently found his feet under Marco Silva and has produced a top-notch performance in his last two games.

The former Arsenal star was in the starting lineup for the Cottagers against the Merseyside Reds and was a constant threat for the home team's defender.

Liverpool took the lead in the game through Trent Alexander-Arnold before Harry Wilson levelled things up a few minutes later.

Liverpool's summer signing, Alexis Mac Allister, restored the Reds' lead in the 38th minute, but a late goal from Kenny Tete in added time ended the first half in a draw.

The game took a little twist when Bobby Decordova-Reid gave the visitors the lead in the 80th minute, but quickfire goals from Wataru Endo and Alexander-Arnold gave Liverpool the deserved win, according to Sky Sports.
