In the friendlies played recently in Austria, Nigeria lost to the Desert Warriors of Algeria by a lone goal and drew 1-1 against Tunisia.


In a chat with Brila.net, the former Nigeria midfielder made it clear that Rohr has done well by helping the Super Eagles reach "major competitions" and deserves "a little bit of time" to achieve more.

’’So far for me, I think he has done well qualifying the Super Eagles team to major competitions, and I don’t think he should be judged by two friendly matches coming out of a pandemic season.’’
