Rohr Speaks On Eagles World Cup Exit

Super Eagles Head Coach Gernot Rohr has said inexperience led to his team’s ouster from the 2018 World Cup on Tuesday.

The Eagles needed to avoid defeat against Argentina in their last Group D game on Tuesday, but lost 2-1 to Argentina.

Lionel Messi netted first for Nigeria before Victor Moses equalized from a penalty in the second half.
 
However, Marcos Rojo grabbed the winner with minutes to the end of the game, sending Argentina to the round of 16.

“We are disappointed. My young team was missing a little experience to handle the final minutes. I’m proud of my time. We have to accept,” ” Rohr told the media.

“This kind of matches builds the character of a team. They’ll learn. The World Cup has come a bit early. In 4 years, they’ll learn.”
