The interim head coach of the Super Eagles, Augustine Eguavoen, has reacted to the side’s 1-0 win over Libya in a 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying fixture on Friday.
Fisayo Dele-Bashiru scored the only goal in the 90th minute of the encounter at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State.
Speaking after the game, Eguavoen said he expected more goals against the Mediterranean Knights, who defended largely during the game.
“I expected us to score more goals. Overall, we are happy to maintain our top spot. I was feeling bad, but we kept pushing and progressing. Emotions were high. Libya defended in numbers and we are happy to win.
“We were a bit slow in the first half, but the second half was good; we were faster and we got the goal,” Eguavoen told reporters.
