CHAN: Eagles Keeper Agbim Disappointed Over The 'cheap' goal He Conceded

Nigeria goalkeeper Chigozie Agbim has said he was disappointed to concede a soft goal against Mozambique in a CHAN Group A match on Wednesday night.
 
Skipper Agbim was beaten by a Dario Khan 50-yard free kick in the 10th minute to give Mozambique some hope before the Super Eagles turned on their style to finally win 4-2 at the Cape Town Stadium.
 
“I was disappointed because I don’t think any goalkeeper can be happy conceding that kind of goal,” said Agbim.

Soaring through the night sky, the ball roaring high over the wall and curled beautifully into the far top corner.
