CHIPOLOPOLO coach Wedson Nyirenda has hinted that Super Eagles attacking prowls of Alex Iwobi and Kelechi Iheanacho may have made his defenders jittery.
This he stated in his post-match comments where he also gave Zambian fans hope that his team is still in the race to qualify to the World Cup despite going down 2-1 in the opening match against Nigeria on Sunday in Ndola.
“It was sad, football being what it is, it went the other way.
"But I want to say that the defenders were jittery and unsettled. Maybe the stage was big but it happens in football,” said Nyirenda.
"We are still in the game, we are not out.”
The victory see Nigeria move to the group top spot with 3points followed by Algeria and Cameroon who shared spoils in Algeirs while Zambia seat bottom of the log with no point.
