The Nigerian striker was in impressive form as Arsenal comprehensively beat a Milan side which featured the likes of Christian Vieiri and Cafu.
A Nwankwo Kanu hat-trick and goal from Robert Pires gave Arsenal Legends a 4-1 win over Milan Glorie in a charity match at Emirates Stadium.
The Gunners attempted to start the match with 12 men when Nigerian striker Kanu didn’t realise he had been named as a substitute, but the 40-year-old made up for his mistake when he scored a header from Emmanuel Petit’s cross on 27 minutes, before Milan’s Christian Vieri equalised with a scrappy effort five minutes before the break.
Kanu scored a second on 72 minutes before Pires got in on the act just a day after playing at the Wembley Cup, while Vieri netted a late consolation for Milan when he rebounded in a penalty which was well saved by David Seaman.
Highlights included Martin Keown begging Arsene Wenger to bring him on throughout the match and Nigel Winterburn squaring up to Paolo Di Canio in a mock incident of when the Italian confronted a referee against Sheffield Wednesday in September 1998.
Robert Pires, Freddie Ljungberg and Kolo Toure all featured for the home side while Wenger and Fabio Capello took charge of the respective squads in a match which is expected to raise £1 million for the Arsenal Foundation’s mission to build pitches for children in London, Jordan and Somalia
Arsenal Legends: Jens Lehmann, David Seaman, Martin Keown, Marc Overmars, Ray Parlour, Emmanuel Petit, Pascal Cygan, Gilberto, Nigel Winterburn, Kolo Toure, Robert Pires, Freddie Ljungberg, Sylvain Wiltord, Anders Limpar, Gilles Grimandi and Nwankwo Kanu.
AC Milan Glories: Christian Abbiati, Dida, Cafu, Paolo Maldini, Demetrio Albertini, Alessandro Costacurta, Paolo Di Canio, Edgar Davids, Marcel Desailly, Daniele Massaro, Marco Simone, Angelo Carbone, Dario Simic, Giuseppe Favalli, Kakhaber Kaladze, Zvonimir Boban, Massimo Ambrosini, Stefano Eranio, Giuseppe Pancaro, Ibrahim Ba, Serginho and Christian Vieri

I'm not a football fan, but I remember playing fifa street A LOT back in the days, and there was that player called Nwankwo Kanu... a tall player with excellent ball control, which I always wanted to score goals with. Ever since I always adored this player. Not really into football, but I kind of respect this guy, a Nigerian legend.
He was one of the most technically gifted footballers of our time.

Africa should be thankful of this two soccer legends, nwankwo n okocha. We r proud of them. African athletic skill respect just rested upon their accomplishments in soccer. history. Otherwise no African Athlete oversees is recognized without them today. They open up doors for youths that had interest in playing oversees no matter how good or horrible any star from Africa is.

It was a privilege to watch Kanu play for club and country. What a talent, what a grace
Note that he didn't celebrate any of the goals and even feigned injury on 2nd. Inter Milan was his former club in the same city AC Milan hails from.

@Gossip Heart That was back in the day. The new guys look VERY young. Even younger than European players. Did you see them in the recent youth tournaments. They look much younger than everyone else. Also now we have concrete evidence showing the youth of players like Iheanacho. and lastly, MRI (which isn't entirely accurate, but largely accurate), has made it very difficult to age cheat. I would say the likes of Ndidi, Iheanacho, Osimhen etc. are DEFINITELY young. It was the generation of Kanu, Obafemi Martins etc that were much older. Yes it WAS a big issue, but it isn't really an issue NOW. Even if a player age cheats, it might be by months or a year.
Legend 👏👏
