Brazil vs Nigeria: Rohr identifies area Super Eagles must improve

Super Eagles coach, Gernot Rohr, has revealed that his team still needs to improve in defending set-pieces following their 1-1 international friendly draw with Brazil in Singapore on Sunday.

Rohr also hailed wingers, Moses Simon and Samuel Chukwueze for giving the Selecao lots of problems on the counter-attack during the encounter.

Rohr’s men held the five-time world champions to a stalemate in an international friendly in Singapore on Sunday.

Joe Aribo had put the Super Eagles in front in the 35th minute with a fine finish from close range before Casemiro’s second-half strike saved the South Americans from a shock defeat.

The draw is the best result the Nigeria has secured against the five-time world champions, after losing 3-0 in their last encounter in 2003 in Abuja.(Dailypost)
