Nigeria vs Croatia: Falconets coach, Danjuma reacts to Super Eagles’ 2-0 loss

Coach of the Falconets, Chris Danjuma, has urged Nigerians to be patient and give the Super Eagles a chance.

Danjuma said this while reacting to the Eagles 0-2 loss to Croatia in the Group D opening match in the World Cup in Russia on Saturday.

He said the present crop of players, if given the chance, would take the world by storm in another year or two.

“We need to be a little patient with the team and it is very important; we must as a nation have developmental mentality.

“We must understand that this is the first time majority of these guys will be playing at this stage; some of them have never played even at the Nations Cup.

“Why don’t we give them room to develop? Why don’t we understand that this is a team for the future? I think that it we carry that mentality we will see progress in this team.

“From every great team you see today, there had been a level of building and progress; no team just became great today without going through this process.

“This team will play better as the tournament progresses; today, Iceland sprang a surprise; who says Nigeria cannot do that.”
