Super Eagles goalkeeper Maduka Okoye was filmed in a tense confrontation at Oktoberfest, adding further scrutiny following recent Nigeria benchings
Super Eagles goalkeeper Maduka Okoye has been caught in a tense exchange at Oktoberfest after footage emerged showing the Udinese star appearing visibly agitated during a confrontation.
The brief clip offers little context about what sparked the incident, but Okoye can be heard warning the person recording: “Watch your mouth.”
The footage begins after the confrontation appears to have already started, making it impossible to establish what happened before the camera was switched on.
Okoye, 27, is seen exchanging words with people around him before turning his attention towards the person filming the incident. The goalkeeper appears frustrated as the exchange continues, eventually issuing his warning.
“Watch your mouth,” Okoye says in the short clip.

Okoye will now hope the Oktoberfest footage does not create another distraction around his international career. With the circumstances surrounding the confrontation still unclear, the brief video provides more questions than answers.
