Goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali has tendered a personal apology after the Super Eagles failed to win a fourth AFCON title.
Nwabali conceded twice for AFCON hosts Cote d’Ivoire to win their third AFCON crown 2-1 at the expense of the Super Eagles.
He was partly to blame for the Ivorians’ equaliser after Nigeria took a first-half lead.
“A disappointing and frustrating end,” Chippa United of South Africa goalkeeper Nwabali posted on X
“I deeply apologise to Nigerians .
“I was once a fan, still a fan and I understand how it feels giving you a disappointing night.
“We take full responsibility.
“Thanks for the whole support till the end. I love you all.”
