Super Eagles to return with bronze trophy from CHAN.

Football fans on Saturday commended the
Super Eagles for their 1-0 victory over their
Zimbabwean counterparts in the third place match of
the African Nations Championship (CHAN). Some of them who spoke to the News Agency of
Nigeria (NAN) said the Eagles did well to clinch the
bronze trophy after 1-4 semi-final loss to Ghana on
Wednesday. NAN reports that Chinonso Obiozor’s 82nd minute
goal was the decider for the two sides and gave the
Nigerian side the victory. Victor Orji, the President of the Federation of Public
Service Games Association (FEPSGA), said the
team’s performance showed the normal Eagles’
fighting spirit. “Although, the game saw only a goal, the players’
performance today showed the normal Super Eagles’
spirit. “It was a compact game and they deserved the
victory because it shows that we are growing. “It is not all about winning with a wide margin’’, Orji
said.
