Netizens lament as Guinea Beat Super Eagles 2-0 in pre-AFCON friendly

Social media users in Nigeria are bemoaning the Super Eagles' defeat to Guinea in today's (Monday) pre-AFCON friendly.

They are also doubting the team's ability to perform well at the AFCON, which is set to begin in Cote d'Ivoire on January 13.

Following the Super Eagles' 2-0 defeat to Guinea in a recent friendly match held at Abu Dhabi's Bani Yas Stadium, there was uncertainty and scepticism.

The Jose Peseiro-led team's humiliating loss to Guinea, where they were unable to score, clouded their readiness for the upcoming AFCON competition.
Fans took to social media to lament the loss.

X user, timidakolo, remarked, “Our beloved Super Eagles is now a mockingbird.”
"I still wonder what the team has been preparing in the camp," Miraculousound said as he expressed his thoughts. What level of fear or confidence will their opponent have going into the competition if they can lose a friendly match? Super Eagles, everything is good.

Johndoe pa said he was surprised, asking, "So Guinea won Nigeria 2-0 and nobody's talking about it? Imagine having simultaneous support for Arsenal and the Super Eagles. Su!c!de mission accomplished.

"The one thing that seriously gets me so angry about the Super Eagles is this: 'let's go it again!'" Buchi Laba expressed his frustration. Please, what should you do again? Repeat your mistakes once more! Leave now!

Marieterezz wrote on X as well, saying, "Bunch of weaklings." Their job is to finish the numbers, after which they run back to their respective clubsides and pick up their money from the NFA. Many lacking in patriotism

Abradinho1 questioned the team's performance in a broken English letter, writing, "No be the same people wey dem tell us say dem beat people 12 -0 be dat. What transpired after that?

"The #SuperEagles have just lost 2 – 0 to Guinea, who are ranked 80th in the FIFA rankings," Im_ScraPer sarcastically stated. I know we're going to have a great JERSEY parade for Cameroon.
