Eagles goalkeeper and captain Ikechukwu Ezenwa has been praised by coach Gernot Rohr after he inspired Nigeria to qualify for the semi-finals of the 2018 CHAN in Morocco.

Rohr also praised the CHAN Eagles for reaching the last four of the tournament in Morocco.

Ezenwa pulled off several saves to keep Nigeria alive before they fought back to beat Angola 2-1 in Tangier tonight.

“I am not surprised by what Ezenwa has done, I know him and that’s why I picked him against Cameroon and Algeria , he’s a good goalkeeper with good reflexes and great on one-on-one,” Rohr told SCORENigeria

“He showed this today, he saved three, four one-on-one situations.

“He’s a local player who is good to play for the main Super Eagles.”


Rohr also told SCORENigeria that qualification to the semifinal is already a success for Nigeria.

“It was a wonderful game, not easy, but we deserved to qualify,” he remarked.

“They never gave up and they were better team and stronger in the extra time.

“It is a very good result by the team and reaching the semifinal is already a good success for Nigeria.”

Nigeria will battle Sudan on Wednesday in Marrekesh for a place in the CHAN final.
