Nigerian defender Kenneth Omeruo has reflected on the Super Eagles’ 0-2 loss to Mali in a friendly match played in Marrakech, Morocco on Tuesday night.
The Super Eagles lost the game after conceding two goals in each half by El Bilal Toure and Kamory Doumbia sealing the win for Mali.
While reflecting on the friendly game which handed Mali their first game against Nigeria in 49 years, Omeruo said that the Super Eagles deserved more from the game.
“I think we played a better second half, it wasn’t a bad game, we just didn’t take our chances and they scored two goals. Overall, I think we played a good game,” Omeruo told NFF TV.
“I think it was good outing for us, fantastic spirit. The players that were here gave their best. We just couldn’t score in the game.”
The Super Eagles will now shift attention to the forthcoming World Cup qualifiers against South Africa in June.
