Super Eagles star Alex Iwobi scored a brace as Fulham thrashed Nottingham Forest 5-0 at the Craven Cottage in the Premier League on Wednesday night.

The 27-year-old starred with his Man of the Match performance making for a sensational viewing.

Iwobi scored his first Premier League goal for Fulham against Wolves barely two weeks ago precisely on November 27.

The former Arsenal man opened the scoring in the half-hour mark and added his second on the night in the 73rd minute.

Mexican international Raul Jimenez also grabbed a brace as Tom Cairney added another to wrap up a comprehensive victory for the Cottagers.

Iwobi was denied a possible hat-trick as he was subbed off by Marco Silva in the 76th minute.

His Super Eagles compatriot Calvin Bassey saw the entire for 90 minutes.
