Reflecting on the experience, Arokodare said, “It’s what every footballer dreams of, to represent their country. I have no words, I was so overwhelmed and incredibly happy, especially for my dad, because I know how much it meant to him.”
He continued, “I was also thrilled that he could be there to watch me play professionally for the first time in Nigeria.”
