Nigeria Fail To Qualify For AFCON 2015 After Failing To Beat SA In A'Ibom

The Super Eagles were on Wednesday held to a 2-2 draw by South Africa at the new Akwa Ibom stadium, ensuring they won’t defend their title next year in Equatorial Guinea at the 2015 AFCON.

Tokelo Rantie’s double seemed to set South Africa up for their first win over the Super Eagles in a competitive outing, but Aluko struck twice in the final 22 minutes to even the score, his efforts though matter nothing in the end as Nigeria will not have the opportunity to defend the title they won in South Africa last year as Congo beat Sudan 1-0 in the other Group A clash.

The Holy book says: Pride goes before the fall. Keshi became arrogant bcos of AFCON 2013 victory, he arrogated the victory to only himself, discarded the players dt worked for him, looked down on NFF technical dept and eventually became GEJ coach.

His technical ineptitude has now caught up with him.
