Internationals: Mkhitaryan scores, Iwobi stars

We had six players in international action over Friday and Saturday. Read on to find out how they fared.

Alex Iwobi started for Nigeria as they ran out comfortable 3-1 winners over Seychelles on Friday.

After Odion Ighalo’s opener from the spot was cancelled out by Rody Melanie, Henry Onyekuru and Moses Simon found the back of the net, ensuring Nigeria finished their qualifying campaign at the top of Group E.

Henrikh Mkhitaryan scored a penalty as Armenia slipped to a narrow 2-1 defeat against Bosnia & Herzegovina.

Rade Krunic and Deni Milosevic handed the hosts a two-goal lead, before our No 7 converted from 12 yards in the 93rd minute.
