Former captain of the Super Eagles team, Sunday Oliseh, shared how he thinks Victor Osimhen is the reason Nigeria didn’t get to play in the finals and win the AFCON.

He stated that the viral feud between Lookman and Osimhen is what broke the team’s unity and spirit.

“We are confusing talent with permission. Victor Osimhen is world class, but talent doesn’t give you the right to break team chemistry.

Look at the evidence. Since that public outburst against Ademola Lookman, one of our brightest players, Lookman became a shadow of himself and we lost our edge.”

Nigerian footballer, Ademola Lookman speaks on Nigeria’s Bronze from the Afcon game.

It can be recalled that the country won the medal after their victory against Egypt.

Lookman stated during an interview “Everyone wanted to win the gold medal. We came for the trophy, but it didn’t happen.”

“We leave the tournament with the bronze medal, and that is enough.”

Moroccan player Brahim Díaz speaks after his missed penalty that resulted in the country’s defeat to Senegal.

The player expressed how sad he was about the missed penalty and blames himself. “My soul hurts. I dreamed of this title because of all the love you guys have given me, every message and every act of support that made me feel like I wasn’t alone.”

“I gave my all, with my heart leading the way. I messed up yesterday, and I’m fully responsible for it. I’m really sorry for what happened.”
