Five Premier League players - including Alex Iwobi and Calvin Bassey - were among those to endure flight chaos after jetting out of Nigeria's latest 2026 World Cup qualifier. There was midair mayhem during that journey as a cracked windscreen forced the plane that the Super Eagles were travelling on to make an emergency landing. Said trip was eventually completed some 12 hours later than initially planned.

Calvin Bassey has claimed that Manchester United's goal against Fulham should have been disallowed after Leny Yoro pushed him away from the ball. The Cottagers came from behind to snatch a point from the Red Devils as Rodrigo Muniz's own goal was cancelled out by Emile Smith Rowe, who scored the equaliser with his very first touch after coming on as a substitute.
