Football enthusiasts have expressed their displeasure after the three-time African champions only managed a point against the Leone Stars in Freetown
Nigerian football fans have taken to social media to express their disappointment with the Super Eagles’ 0-0 draw against Sierra Leone on Tuesday.
Gernot Rohr’s men managed to share the points with the Leone Stars in Freetown in the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers in Freetown.
The draw is their second in two games after they were held 4-4 by John Keister’s men in the first outing of their meeting in Benin City.

The diff btw Westerhof & Rohr is, Clemence knows how to go to places like Sierra Leone & win the game. That’s why he kept the likes of Thompson Oliha, Moses Kpakor, Precious Monye, Abdul Sule, Babalade & few rugged home based players in his match day squad. #SuperEagles #SLENGA

I appreciate all Iheanacho and the rest has done but the team lacked a clinical centre forward today. If Osimhen doesn’t play, who could? 😔 #AfconQualifiers #SLENGA

England u21 would comfortably beat super eagles in Any Nigerian stadium. Those kids starting eleven are all first team players in top teams 💔#SLENGA

Nigeria football team is just overhyped. Bunch of average players
Sierras Leone pitch is so bad that the fans watching the match could get injured
Rohr for me is just average, he has ruined Nigeria style of play, no creativity, no pace, no vibe. He is just average! #SLENGA
