However, as Nigerians blamed Maduka Okoye and President Mohammadu Buhari for their loss, Jay-Jay Okocha outlined that Tunisia outclassed the Super Eagles tactically.
While speaking as a pundit on SuperSport, he also added that Tunisia was the more ambitious side.
He said:
“They (Tunisia) executed their tactics well. This is a disappointing loss. They outclassed Nigeria. I have always said that you are as good as your next game. This is a lesson for every big team.”
“I think it is good to see that we are flying high, but the most important one is the next game and we can only justify our performances so far if we go on and win the next one.”
“So every next game is the toughest one for you and the one you have to win. I hope we will carry on the good job that we are doing so far.”
