Leon Balogun and Joe Aribo featured prominently in Rangers’ 4-0 win over Aberdeen in Sunday’s Scottish Premiership game.
The Nigerian stars struggled with injury problems at the start of the season but since they regained their fitness they have continued to play significant roles for club and country.
Balogun and Aribo only recently returned from international duty after helping the Super Eagles maintain their lead in Group L of the Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers following back-to-back draws against Sierra Leone.
The players were handed starting roles by the Gers and they gave good accounts of themselves in the encounter.
