Nigeria dream team captain,
Mikel Obi,
has admitted that his team mates didn’t play well in Wednesday’s
Olympics football semi final clash against Germany in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
With the team missing the services of two key players in the shape of
Oghenekaro Etebo and Azubuike Okechukwu, they struggled against the
Europeans, first conceding early in the first half, before Nils Petersen
grabbed a second goal with one minute remaining.
“I wanted to win the gold medal, but the fact is that we did not play
well today (Wednesday). The Germans played well,”
allnigeriasoccer.com
quoted the Chelsea midfielder as saying at the press conference.
"We are professionals, we can now claim third place and this is what we get. We want to give a medal to Nigeria ”
