World Cup Miss: NFF Sacks Super Eagles Technical Crew

Following the team’s qualification failure, there has been a deluge of reactions from pundits, ex-players, and fans alike.

Many of them blamed tactical inefficient for the failure while others faulted the players for their lack of zeal.

One such is a former Nigerian international, George Abbey. The ex-Sharks defender blamed the players for not showing the desire to qualify for the tournament.

“When you put on that Super Eagles jersey, the whole nation is expecting you to go to war for us,” George, who played at the 2004 Africa Cup of Nations, added.

“This is not a time when you want to come and entertain; show skills and dilly-dally on the ball; take your time. Everything has to be crisp. From the start, we need warriors. We need players who are ready to bleed for the nation and I did not see any of that.”
