Fans Call for Gernot Rohr's Sack After Super Eagles Dismal Performance Against CAR

• Gernot Rohr has been asked to be sacked by the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) following Super Eagles dismal performance against CAR
• The German gaffer and his team succumbed to a last-minute goal from Karl Namngandaa which made Group C open
• The Super Eagles will play the return leg on October 8, 2021, to reclaim top spot in the group that comprises Liberia and Cape Verde

Nigerian fan wants Super Eagles handler Gernot Rohr to be relieved of his duties after Nigeria were beaten by the Central African Republic by 1-0.

A 90th-minute strike from Karl Namngandaa stunned the three-time African champions in front of their home fans at the Teslim Balogun Stadium.

The defeat did not affect the Super Eagles status in Group C but fans believe the loss is unforgivable and Rohr should be sacked immediately.

What fans said:

One fan said:

“It is high time NFF sack Rohr. After five years of being in charge of a team, Rohr can’t build a team with a play pattern. #Sack Rohr Now! (sic)”

Another fan added:

“Rohr shouldn’t be the coach managing the Super Eagles in 2021, he does not have any persona to match this squad, pay him and sack him, get a young vibrant coach, please (sic).”

It is understood that the 68-year-old is being owed several months salary as one supporter stood to his defence and said:

“A loss at home to the Central African Republic is the height of abysmal performance from the Super Eagles. It’s one that should earn coach Gernot Rohr a sack Letter. I just remembered NFF is owning Coach Rohr 8 months of salary.”
