“AFCON 2023”- Super Eagles goalie Nwabali cools off in bathtub, video goes viral

Stanley Nwabali, the goalie for the Nigerian Super Eagles, has been in the news when a video of him taking an ice bath went viral.

Nigerians have responded to the viral video posted on the goalkeeper’s TikTok account in a big way.

Nwabali was seen cooling down in an ice-filled white bathtub in the widely shared video.
