The interim coach of the Super Eagles, Augustine Eguavoen has stepped down.
Recall that the Super Eagles yesteday suffered 0-1 defeat within the hands of Tunisia within the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations round of 16 .
Eguavoen had led the three-time champions to a few straight wins towards Egypt, Sudan and Guinea-Bissau.
Nevertheless, they fell brief against a Covid-stricken Tunisian crew within the knockout phases.
“What occurs next is that I’m the interim coach and Technical Director of the Nigeria Soccer Federation (NFF).
“I’ll return to my place and permit the NFF (to) decide on the best way ahead,” Eguavoen mentioned after the match.
Eguavoen stepped in after Gernot Rohr was sacked final month.
Nevertheless, the NFF introduced Jose Peseiro as the brand new permanent coach before the AFCON kicked off.
