Why we lost to Argentina- Keshi


Nigeria qualified for the Round of 16 at the 2014 FIFA World Cup despite falling to a 3-2 defeat to Argentina.

Barcelona superstar, Lionel Messi was at his brilliant best at the Estadio Beira-Rio on following up a stunning half-volleyed goal, which he scored in the third minute, with a superb free-kick on 45 minutes, as he tallied two goals.
Head coach of Nigeria’s Super Eagles, Stephen Keshi has revealed why they were defeated by Argentina in the final Group F game played at Porto Alegre in Brazil today, 25 June, 2014.
Speaking to newsmen on the defeat after the match, Keshi said: ” I think the boys gave too much respect to our opponents especially in the first half.”

When asked on the area he thinks work still need to be done before the African Champions’s next match, Keshi said: ” It is the same question you guys asked me every time and I keep telling you we would continue to work on every department of the team”
FIFA also announced Messi as the man of the match of the encounter between Nigeria and Argentina.
Guess he should have just said it because we played against Messi Lol!
