Interim coach of the Super Eagles, Augustine Eguavoen, has exposed his side’s significant issue at the continuous 2021 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON).

Eguavoen discussed that his group has actually produced so many scoring chances at the 2021 AFCON but converting them to goals has been a significant headache.

He admitted that his most significant worry was the Super Eagles’ conversion rate at the AFCON, adding that his team is working on it.

Speaking at his pre-match interview on Tuesday, ahead of Nigeria’s final Group D fixture against Guinea-Bissau on Wednesday night, Eguavoen said, “We produce many scoring chances, but converting them to objectives has actually been a significant headache.

“We are dealing with that and we are sure to get it right this time around.”

Eguavoen’s men have currently gotten approved for the 2021 AFCON round of 16 after beating Egypt and Sudan.
