Nigerian internationals Nwankwo Kanu, John Mikel Obi and Oluwaseyi Olofinjana scored as the third round games of the English FA Cup were played yesterday.
Kanu scored in the final minute of Portsmouth's 2-1 win over fellow Premiership side Wigan Athletic at Fratton Park, to give Pompey victory over the Lancashire team.
Mikel scored his first-ever goal for Premiership champions Chelsea following a controversial move seven months ago, netting with a wonderful volley in the 82nd minute for the London team's 5th goal in the 6-1 defeat of Macclesfield.
Franl Lampard scored Chelsea's first three goals.
Seyi Olofinjana was not that lucky as his goal could not give Wolverhampton Wanderers victory over Oldham, the two sides setting for a 2-2 draw and replay.
