Former Super Eagles coach, Johannes Bonfrere has reacted to the team's disappointing one-all draw against Zimbabwe.
The legendary tactician said he was embarrassed by the output of the team indicating that in the past, fans would have disciplined the players after their disappointing performance in Uyo.
CompleteSports reports that Bonfrere expressed disbelief at the current style of football being played by the Super Eagles.
He said: “It’s sad, and unfortunate that small teams are now looking the Super Eagles in the eye and asking, ‘What can you do?’
No team fears them anymore, and that is worrying.” “How do you expect Nigeria to qualify for the World Cup if you do not win games?” “In the past, if we didn’t beat Zimbabwe 3-0 or 4-0, the fans in Lagos would throw stones at us and boo us.
“With the huge number of Super Eagles players in top European leagues, such results are unacceptable. I don’t see how they can qualify for the World Cup, except maybe through the play-offs.
“If that happens, good. But it’s embarrassing that the Super Eagles are struggling against teams they should be beating convincingly.”
Despite Victor Osimhen's 74th-minute goal, Zimbabwe equalized in the 90th minute through substitute Tawanda Chirewa.
