Augustine Eguavoen Resigns After Nigeria Afcon ‘Painful’ Exit

The Nigerian national team’s interim coach, Augustine Eguavoen, has resigned following the Super Eagles’ 1-0 round-of-16 loss to Tunisia in the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations.

Augustine Eguavoen took charge after Gernot Rohr was sacked last month.

The NFF announced Jose Peseiro as the new permanent coach before the commencement of the AFCON.

In a row, Eguavoen guided the three-time champions to victories against Egypt, Sudan, and Guinea-Bissau.

However, they were eliminated in the final stages by a Tunisian squad suffering from COVID.

“What happens next is that I become the Nigeria Football Federation’s temporary coach and technical director” (NFF).
