AFCON: Why Nigeria Lost To Tunisia – Okocha

Nigerian football legend, Austin ”Jay Jay” Okocha has said Tunisia outclassed Super Eagles with tactics.

Tunisia shocked Nigeria on Sunday to set up an Africa Cup of Nations last-eight showdown.

Veteran Youssef Msakni scored two minutes into the second half to give previously unimpressive Tunisia a 1-0 second-round triumph over 10-man Nigeria in Garoua.

Okocha said, “They (Tunisia) executed their tactics well. This is a disappointing loss. They outclassed Nigeria. I have always said that you are as good as your next game. This is a lesson for every big team.”

Okocha had warned that the match against Tunisia, will be the Super Eagles’ toughest match so far in the 2021 AFCON tournament.

“I think it is good to see that we are flying high, but the most important one is the next game and we can only justify our performances so far if we go on and win the next one.” Okocha had said while speaking on his punditry role with Supersport.

“So every next game is the toughest one for you and the one you have to win. I hope we will carry on the good job that we are doing so far.”
