Super Eagles midfielder Ogenyi Onazi has said he is excited to return to action after he was sidelined by a knee injury for several weeks.
.
He was on for an hour in a pre-season friendly for Lazio in a 4-1 win over a Brazilian team on Saturday.
.
The Nigeria star played without feeling any pains.
.
"So, it turns out I got my first action on the field of play today since after my knee complaint. Lasted 60 minutes and it went very well," a delighted Onazi tweeted.
.
He also appreciated everyone who wished him well while he was injured.
.
"Big thanks to God, my friends and family and all my fans around the world," he said.
.
The Jos-born star injured his knee while playing for Nigeria in a 2014 World Cup qualifier against Namibia in Windhoek and so missed the FIFA Confederations Cup in Brazil.
.
He has since been recalled for next month's high- profile friendly against South Africa in Durban.
