Former Nigerian international striker Benedict Akwuegbu is set to grace the pitch once again as he features in a charity fundraising match today in Portsmouth, England.

The event, scheduled to take place at the PMC Stadium on Eastern Road, will bring together several notable teams including Louis Team, Baffins Team, and the fan-favorite Pompey Legends.

Akwuegbu will don the colours of the Pompey Legends, with kickoff slated for 1 PM local time. He will be joined by a lineup of former Portsmouth players and local heroes, including Lee Brown, Matt Hussy, Rowan Vine, Wayne Harding, Steve Ledger, and Michael Doyle.

The former Super Eagles forward is expected to bring his attacking flair to the charity game, having impressed in a recent exhibition match. Just weeks ago, Akwuegbu scored and provided an assist while playing for the Alan Knight Team in a thrilling 8–8 draw against the Pompey Legends.

Today’s fixture promises to be another exciting chapter in Akwuegbu’s ongoing contributions to charitable causes through football.
