I Saw A Good Eagles Team Against DRC - Sunday Oliseh

Nigeria coach Sunday Oliseh has insisted that even though his team lost 2-0 to DR Congo, he saw “a very good team”.

Two first-half goals by DRC in Vise, Belgium, on Thursday night handed Oliseh his first loss in three matches as Super Eagles boss.

However, the coach said he had to play a makeshift team following a visa hitch that caused Turkey-based defender Godfrey Oboabona and six players from the domestic league not to join the squad in Belgium in time.


“We played a makeshift team and we are trying to rebuild. I saw a very good team, we had more possession even though there were shortcomings in certain areas,” reasoned Oliseh.

“We lost but (Alexander) Iwobi came in and showed some good signs, Shehu (Abdullahi) and some other players made their debut.

“It has been very difficult for us working here.
