Poor dude, he must be traumatized.

Chippa United goalkeeper Daniel Akpeyi has stressed that he was aware of the rules when he handled the ball with his hands outside the area during the first half of the international friendly between Nigeria and Argentina.

And he has blamed the assistant referee for the mix-up, stating that the official had raised the flag for an offside before he handled the ball.

Although Argentina had a legitimate complain as the referee did not blow the whistle, television images showed Porto loanee Chidozie Awaziem backing Akpeyi, informing referee Bezborodov that the linesman's flag was up.

''When Akpeyi saw the linesman with the flag, his mind did not go to the referee did not blow the whistle,'' a source close to Daniel Akpeyi told allnigeriasoccer.com.

''He just dropped the ball to play the offside. It really broke his heart that they scored from the free-kick, and people will forget about the saves he made during the game.

''He is just coming from a good run of games for his club, and will keep working on the tactical aspects of the game''.

Often seen wearing glasses, Akpeyi has revealed that he wears them for fashion, adding that he's not short or long sighted.


Savage!!

So he saw the flag and picked up the ball without playing to the whistle... that is what happens when you are a bag of nerves..

[Gotti]

We already knew that was what happened...

On ESPNFC yesterday, he got the dreaded Shakastrophic from Alejandro Moreno. I specifically taped yesterday to see to see their reaction... . He was disastrous.

All that could’ve been swept under the bridge had he been a little more useful than a ‘traffic cone’ during the resultant free kick. (Copyright mace04).

For real. It was like the Argentinian just passed the ball into the net and there was no goalie.

That was so depressing. Your teammates are out there hustling and concentrating only to be undone by silliness.

Why the heck is Akpeyi explaining himself on social media? The guy needs a PR manager.. All he needs to do is hush, and let the heat die off..kai....Bobo is asking for more......

The wall was terrible. His positioning disastrous.
