A few reports, not on Concise News, guarantee that NFF was very nearly sacking the German after Nigeria lost to Algeria in the semi-finals of the progressing 2019 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) in Egypt.

Riyad Mahrez got a shocking free-kick at the passing of the match to arrive the North Africans in the AFCON last just because following 29 years.

Nigeria's William Troost-Ekong had given the Desert Foxes the lead through a claim objective before Odion Ighalo evened out from the punishment spot in the 70th moment.

Be that as it may, with the match heading for additional time, Mahrez terminated into the top corner to send the Algerians into joys and the Nigerians into hopelessness.

"We don't have such designs to sack Rohr," The Guardian cited Pinnick as saying as on Monday.

Nigeria take on Tunisia on Wednesday in the third-set playoff.
