COACH Sunday Oliseh
said that losing 1-0 to Guinea
in yesterday’s last group C match of the Africa Nations Championship, was
something he and his team did not envisage.
He regretted the loss coming after the Super Eagles have
chalked up four points from their two previous matches and only needed a draw
against Guinea

mincing words that the Federation would now shift focus to the qualification
race for the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations.
