Samuel Chukwueze gave the Super Eagles the lead before the hour mark at the Godswill Akpabio international Stadium. The AC Milan winger dribbled past three Rwandan players before slotting the ball at the back of the net.
But Rwanda fought back and equalized through Jimmy Mutsinzi in the 72nd minute. The visitors then took the lead three minutes later, thanks to Innocent Nshuti’s goal. After the game, fans took to their X (formerly Twitter) accounts to share their thoughts about the match.
Here are some comments gathered by DAILY POST from X: @olusegun04, “I understand there was nothing to play for as we’ve qualified for the afcon coming up in Morocco. But at least you could play a draw with good entertaining football, defeat will certainly affect our fifa rankings.” @Oladapomikky1, “The Victor Boniface we watched today is different from the one playing for Bayern Leverkusen.
Finally...
. Get a foreign Manager simple as ABC @Agoziem_Midas, “No you’re not. Get a proper coach and let this team play proper football for once! For how long are Nigerians going to be subjected to the punishment of watching the rubbish football the Super Eagles have been playing in recent years?” @udomndi, “Get a competent coach.
Almost a year since the last AFCON and we are still doing interim. Eguavoen has done his best and we appreciate that. Like 2006, 2021 AFCONs and 2022 WC qualifiers we’ve seen his best is not good enough.
” @bigdammy, ” Collect our green white green jersey from BoniFACE. Striker wet no sabi how to FACE goal post – Drop Ihenacho, he has nothing more to offer – improve on deadball – sort out creativity in the midfield – play Simon more – Chukwueze is magnificent – Ekong is old and slow.” @Oriyomi0930, “Boniface no be national team player.
.. if Eguavoen doesn’t know this then he is not a good coach.
” @BetPark0, “Ball for club, play trash for country. Use|ess players.” @OfficialJoel4, “Keep your head high.
Great spirit from everyone.” @skoutwatch, “Great job so far, Super Eagles. You will bounce back stronger.
” @olusegun04, “I’m so disappointed no be small.” @adetosage, “I said we need coach.” @Frankiee44, “Disappointment is an understatement.
