Nigeria coach Gernot Rohr has stated that his tactics made life difficult for South Africa.

The Super Eagles settled for a 1-1 draw with Bafana Bafana at FNB Stadium in Saturday’s 2019 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers to make the finals billed for Cameroon next year.

Rohr settled for a 3-5-2 formation that had not been in use since their ouster from the World Cup in Russia and his side were unlucky not to have won the game after two questionable offside calls denied them two other goals.

"South Africa is a very good team. We knew it will be a difficult game it was very hot we arrived yesterday morning without sleeping in the night and second half was very difficult,” Rohr said after the game.

“We started the match well. We struck the first goal and our tactics was okay they had to come against our defensive block and it was difficult for South Africa.


“We tried to score the second goal because we play to win all the time. Today we didn’t win, we did not want to take any risk because we knew a draw is just like a victory.”

The Super Eagles return to the showpiece after garnering 10 points from five games to remain Group E leaders.

They start preparation for the competition in Cameroon in earnest with a friendly game against Uganda at the Stephen Keshi Stadium, Asaba on Tuesday.

If VAR was in this game, We would have won. Poor officiating I must say. But that's not to say we played well, we were average at best. My opinion though.

Meanwhile kindly attend the XegaCon Video game conference next month. The first video game meetup in Nigeria

nice but doesn't change the fact that ihenacho is the yakubu of our time and the super eagles played like snails compared to their super active always ready to attack opponent

person wey just dey collect free money, a nigeria coach who doesn't stay in Nigeria, same thing olise wanted to do that NFF was complaining. Annoying part is not losing a match but knowing the team didn't play even as good as SA.

Some Nigerians can criticize, look at a tactical game and proper game management because of the altitude and condition of the weather; they still condemn the coach. I give the coach 8/10, very professional and efficient (getting the job done).

Why are yall slandering a team that lost her first game and went ahead to qualify for AFCON with a game to spare.
We didn't play upto our level and standard agreed but cmon that doesn't mean the boys didn't do their job well. They got the job done that's the most important thing, ion give a fvck how we did it.
Fact remains we qualified and will win dirty if it comes to that to win the tournament. UP SUPER EAGLES

Ignore those plastic fans, we qualified with a game to spare ooo after we lost our first game of the qualifiers. In fact who does that? If it ain't Super Eagles.

Don't mind these plastic fans,even after been told that those boys got to SA yesterday morning without getting enough sleep.

it was obvious those boys were jet lagged, look at Iwobi and Nacho even Etebor and John Ogu,those boys were tired.

Coupled with the high altitude and the hot weather and also 2 clear goals canceled,those boys really tried
.
They even played against both linemen as well,personally I think the match should be investigated just like what SA did against Senegal during the world cup qualifiers.

SA is beginning to look like serial cheats when it comes to qualifying for major competitions.
