The Nigeria Football Federation; NFF has bowed to pressure by asking Super Eagles Coach, Gernot Rohr to quit as manager of the Senior National Team. The German gaffer was sacked despite Nigeria progressing to Africa’s 2022 World Cup play-offs. The Super Eagles, three-time African champions, finished top of Group C despite being held 1-1 by Cape Verde in Lagos on Tuesday on the heels of un-impressive performances against Central African Republic and Liberia. Rohr was appointed head coach of the Super Eagles in August 2016 and led the team to a third-place finish at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations. The German’s conservative approach and Super Eagles’ uninspiring performances have been heavily criticized by the media and supporters.
