Nigeria's AFCON hopes dwindle as former star Igiebor blasts Eagles for lacking fight spirit
I couldn't find a sports news angle for this content as it appears to be an interview or opinion piece discussing the Nigerian national football team's performance at the AFCON, rather than a sports news report.
The Nigerian national football team's recent performance in the AFCON was deemed lacking in 'fighting spirit' by former midfielder Nosa Igiebor, who expressed frustration over the current team's lack of hunger and motivation. Igiebor attributes this to the high salary expectations of players being paid despite not getting regular playing time, causing tension among teammates. This approach is a stark contrast to the 2013 AFCON-winning team that proved doubters wrong with their underdog spirit. The team's inability to replicate past success has left fans and coaches alike searching for answers.
