Former Super Eagles forward, Daniel Amokachi has blasted Super Eagles players and said they did not deserve to qualify for the World Cup, after they were held to a 1-1 draw by Ghana on Tuesday in Abuja.
Megasportsarena.com reports that Da Bull insisted that the team’s poor attitude and lack of urgency cost them a place in the finals in Qatar.
“The Eagles didn’t come to play at all. The players did not show how important it was for them to play at the World Cup. They were playing as if they didn’t know that there was an away goal rule. The urgency was zero from our players.
“They didn’t deserve to qualify for the World Cup from the way they played. The Ghanaians showed they wanted it more than our boys. Their attitude was not the best at all and they were nonchalant in their play.”
The former Everton ace also took a poke at the Nigerian coaching crew saying the Black Stars were tactically superior to the Eagles.
“Frank Onyeka’s injury affected the game but the Ghanaians were tactically sound on the night. And this is what you get when you have your team 99 per cent built around players born overseas.
“Calvin Bassey was exhausted after the first half and you could see that he always had his hand on his waist each time. I don’t know why he was on for that long.”
