William, who has Nigerian roots, brought his ‘Naija groove’ to play dishing out some energetic dance steps.

However, Isak’s attempt to imitate William left many Nigerians laughing as they dropped funny comments.

The Magpies won the Carabao Cup in a final match against Liverpool at Wembley Stadium on Sunday, March 16.

TheTalk.NG reported that Dan Burn opened the scoreboard in the first half with a brilliant header, coming days after he earned his first England national team call-up under the Three Lions’ new head coach Thomas Tuchel.
