Seychelles may have been beaten 3-0 by the Super Eagles on Saturday but some of their players earned heroes status in Nigeria – goalkeeper, Dave Mussard, in particular.
Mussard does not look like the average international keeper.
For his day job, he is a pastry chef with Hotel Patatran on La Digue Island.
He usually takes 15 minutes boat ride back to work after training sessions.
Cutting to the chase, the 31-year-old has become a social media hit as he is bigger than most footballers.
Mussard robust physique meant he was unable to produce elementary reflexes and punches required in goalkeeping.
Nigerians were at their usual banter best.
