The lack lustre show of the Super Eagles on Monday against Iran was a big disappointment to millions of Brazilians supporting the team.
Brazilians were at the stadium on Monday shouting N-i-g-e-r-i-a, N-i-g-e-r-i-a from the beginning to the end of the game against Iran, but the eagles failed to score.
A Brazilian, Olivera, who was travelled from Sao Paulo to Curitiba for the Eagles, said: “I was disappointed.
“I expect Nigeria to win by 4-0, but we did not even see a goal.”
A volunteer at the media centre also lamented that the Eagles failed to take chances early to kill the game.
He said: “Nigeria had chances in the beginning but the players were not serious to score.
“It is sad because Argentina is a big country to play.”
Eagles skipper, Joseph Yobo, responded to the development.
Yobo said the draw was not a plan by the team, but it just happened that way.
