Super Eagles captain, Ahmed Musa has come out to apologize after their disappointing 4-4 draw against Sierra Leone in Friday’s Africa Cup of Nations qualifying game.
He recently pledged that the team will do everything possible to secure victory in the return leg on Tuesday.
According to him, he and his teammates are really sorry for the poor showing yesterday, but that is football and everyone must move on quickly.
He added that the boys will correct their mistakes in the next game, because qualification for AFCON is key for the country.
His words, “Dear Nigerians, on behalf of myself and my teammates we are really sorry for the disappointment of the game tonight,”
“We know we made a very big mistake in the game but there is nothing we can do, that’s football. Sometimes we win and sometimes we lose.

“We are sorry for the game tonight and we will make it up, thank you very much.”
