Super Hawks coach Eric Chelle blamed his team for making a mistake in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State.
Naija News Chelle submitted the submission at a post-match press conference after the Hawks showed up 1-1 defeated their visitors From Zimbabwe.
He also added that it is difficult to speak further on the game because he has not reviewed the game yet.
“We made some mistakes, we were the best team on the court. It’s football. I’m having a hard time analyzing the game now; we’ll review it later.” Chel says
The coach also avoids blaming any particular person for a frustrating draw and points out that the entire team is responsible for any results they get.
“I don’t want to blame the defenders,” he said.
As a result, Nigeria only ranked fourth in Group C with only 7 points – South African desktop miscellaneous, which puts the fate of qualifications in the air.
Nigeria will need a dramatic turnaround in its remaining fixtures and hope other results will enter the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
