Gernot Rohr Sacked As Super Eagles Head Coach by damilola4162(m): 12:02pm On Nov 18, 2021
Super Eagles head coach Gernot Rohr has reportedly been sacked, Newspremises has gathered.

The decision to relief Rohr of his role as the Eagles head coach, was taken after a company associated with the team agreed to pay the termination clause in his contract.

The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), has already communicated the decision to the coach and has commenced the search for his perfect replacement, who will pilot the affairs of the team for the 2022 World Cup play off and Africa cup of Nation, starting January.

This comes after Nigerian fans and former footballers insisted that Gernot Rohr, must be sacked by NFF following the team’s lacklustre home draw against Cape Verde at the Teslim Balogun Stadium, Lagos on Tuesday.

Newspremises recalls that, it was a nervy moment across the country as the Eagles played a 1-1 draw to book a place in the final round of the Qatar 2022 World Cup.

The Eagles were pegged backwards towards the end of the final Group C game as Pedro Brito’s men pushed forward in search of the winning goal that could have seen them overtake Nigeria on the table.

Despite the Eagles’ qualification for the play-offs next March, fans were left unconvinced by the performance of the team and Rohr’s conservative approach, and once again called for the sack of the Franco-German tactician.

Former England striker of Nigerian descent John Fashanu said Rohr should have been sacked long before now.

His services is no longer needed, he should go and rest.

For the past years of him coaching the national team, i didn't see any impact created by him.

Best news from Nigeria since the beginning of this administration

Nija which way. This is a big error and not at this playoff stage. Nff is broke, the boys are concentrating in their league games while Nigeria league is dead at this moment yet we still turn up for big points.

Is not about seing big names, most country like Ghana are still suffering too.

Nigeria bred coaches wont take the shit this man took for years now.

Best news of the day.

We need an established coach to merge the talents we have in the team.

Farewell, Rohr. Better future

He is arguably the best coach Nigeria has had so far. Of course our play is uglier but getting results is what keeps coaches.

Established coach like who?? He is definitely better than most out there. I'm not happy with his tactics but the fact that he does the needful is commendable.

Rohr has really lost credibility among majority of Nigerians but let us not think that Rohr alone is the problem of the SE.

Rohr never achieved any thing good for Nigeria. Even San Marino in Europe can't employ him sel. The guy used NIG to catch cruise.
