Eagles Have More Work To Do – Rohr
Super Eagles coach Gernot Rohr says his side must remain humble as their victory over Argentina does not make them World Cup favourites.
Nigeria, three-time African champions, came from two goals down to beat the 2014 World Cup runners-up 4-2 on Tuesday in Russia.
And speaking after the game, the Franco-German praised the team for their showing.
He, however, cautioned the players against complacency as they prepare for next year’s World Cup.
“I am happy we came back from two goals down to win 4-2. It shows we have great team spirit and determination when you keep fighting after going two goals down against a great team like Argentina,” Rohr said.
“It’s good victory for us but it doesn’t mean we’ve become favourites to win the World Cup. We stay humble and realise we have more work to do. We prepared well for this game because playing Argentina is big for us, maybe it is different for them.”
