Augustine Eguavoen Quits As Nigeria’s Super Eagles Interim Coach.
Augustine Eguavoen has announced his decision to step down as the interim coach of the Nigerian national football team, Super Eagles.
Eguavoen announced this on Tuesday immediately after he led the team to a convincing draw in a match against Rwanda.
The indigenous coach was appointed as interim coach a few days ago after Bruno Labbadia rejected his appointment with Nigerian Football Federation (NFF). His first match was a convincing 3-0 win against Benin Republic in Uyo last weekend.
The coach explained his decision was because he was only engaged for two matches which he had completed. “I have been given a mandate to handle two games. I will want to say I am very pleased with the boys and again thanks to the NFF leadership and all the boys supported me in terms of discipline and working hard,” he said.
