KANU SCORES

Super Eagles and Portsmouth of England striker, Nwankwo Kanu literally came back from the dead on Saturday when he ended a long goal drought by scoring against Bolton Wanderers.

The lanky striker who has had a turbulent season consigned to the bench came off the bench for David Nugent to score the decisive goal and secure the three maximum points at stake.
Kanu’s goal was the silver lining in a rather drab encounter.

However, the woes of compatriot, John Utaka continued as he sat out for the duration of the match as an unused substitute.
Kanu’s goal provided some respite to the team’s relegation battle and will also gladden the hearts of Super Eagles coach, Amodu Shaibu as he prepares for the June World Cup qualifiers against Kenya in Abuja
