Nigeria Failed to qualify for the World Cup due to poor management. The coaching staff of the Super Eagles started the wrong players against Ghana, notably, Kelechi Ihenancho, Joe Aribo, Leon Balogun, Moses Simon, William Ekong, and Samuel Chukuweze...all of these players are mediocre and lack creativity.

Nigerian coaching staff choose players based off players whom play for "bigger European Teams".. even if certain players never preform for the super eagles, our coach will still start them because they play for the primier league, la Liga etc .

In Europe and South America just playing for a big name league alone won't make the cut. If an Argentina player who plays for Liverpool constantly under performs for the Argentina National Team, that player will be benched for Argentina. This is because South American and European nations r true football nations who care about actually results and winning, not about name brands.

Nigeria suffers from the colonial mentality that whatever is European is deemed Superior, even if the players whom play in Europe r average they will still get preferential treatment.

Home based players with hunger in them would have performed way better.

There's no teamwork among our players, they play well in foreign clubs but the reverse is the case for Nigeria
