AFCON: Omokri Hails Super Eagles For Defeating Egypt
Former presidential aide, Reno Omokri commended the Super Eagles for defeating the Pharaohs of Egypt in the ongoing African Cup of Nations, AFCON.
Omokri praised Super Eagles players for caging Mohammed Salah as he could not play his game during the match.
In a post on his Facebook page, Omokri applauded the performance of Iheanacho and Moses Simon.
According to Omokri: “I like what our boys did to Salah. He was off his game because our boys were on top of theirs. To me, this is the best performance of #AFCON2021 so far.
“Iheanacho was obviously the Man of the Match, though Moses was the life of the team. This is the first time Egypt lost the first round in an AFCON in a long time! The mood in Nigeria is good.
“So good, that I fear lots of babies may be conceived today. We really needed this bit of good news after a week of calamity in other spheres of our national life!”
The Super Eagles of Nigeria opened their AFCON campaign with a 1-0 win against Egypt.
