The Super Eagle’s captain, Vincent Enyeama announced he was retiring from the Super Eagles, Thursday, October 8, 2015. This abrupt action followed a series of conflict with new coach, Sunday Oliseh.
Many Nigerians are obviously unhappy with Sunday Oliseh over Enyeama’s exit from the team after 13 years of dedicated service.
Below are some Tweets from aggrieved Nigerians:
Wait. DR Congo is trashing us 2 – 0? Good. Let them add another 2 so we can appreciate Vincent Enyeama more. #ThankYouVincent
