Head Coach of the Super Eagles, Stephen Keshi, has said he remains proud of the performance of his team in the match against Burkina Faso despite the fact that the game ended in a draw.
Keshi, in a post-match comment, said the team played to instruction.
He said: “I am proud of my players.
“They did all I asked them to do.”
Keshi said in spite of the draw against the not highly rated Burkina Faso team, the spirit of the Super Eagles and the coaching crew will not be dampened.
Rather, he said the team would prepare better for the next game.
He said: “We won’t allow this to bring us down.
“I am just going to allow them to sleep tonight and tomorrow I take them up.”
Keshi explained that Victor Moses did not play in the game against Burkina Faso because he was not fit.
