A furious Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi has lashed out at the
country’s fans, saying it is a shame they have abused his person for the team’s
showing at Brazil 2014.
The Super Eagles and coach Keshi came under heavy fire from angry
fans after they could only manage a 0-0 draw with Iran in their opening group
game at the World Cup in Brazil.
But Keshi has taken serious exception to the fans’ rage, saying
there was no justification for them to insult his person.
“I am disappointed, totally disappointed (by the personal attacks),
but it’s their thing, no wahala (no problem),” blasted Keshi in Brazil.
“It’s a shame, just a shame that we keep doing the same thing and
then they come back and they say they are sorry. Sorry for abusing my mum? Sorry
for abusing my siblings? For what? That I am representing Nigeria?”
AfricanFootball.com can recall that ‘Big Boss’ Keshi has already
fired a salvo at his fellow former football stars who tore at his team and
tactics in Brazil.
He said he had expected much better from them as they ought to know
better about the game than the man on the street.
Nigeria take on Argentina on Wednesday in Porto Alegre and if they
avoided defeat, they will qualify for the knockout rounds of the World Cup for
only the third time in their history.
