In-form Bayer 04 Leverkusen forward, Victor Boniface started from the bench with OGC Nice forward Terem Moffi leading the attack. Boniface who’s good form earned him a third consecutive Rookie Of The Month award in Germany, couldn’t replicate such form for Nigeria, as the three-time African champions drew on Sunday.
Fans across social media platforms have called out the former Bodø and Glimt forward for not scoring goals for the Super Eagles. According to a X user, @Nnamdi-ndee, any Victor without surname “Osimhen” is a counterfeit.
“Any other Victor whose surname isn’t Osimhen is a counterfeit. Super Eagles & Napoli are living testimonies,” Nnamdi said.
Another fan, Godwin Eze Okpunor while reacting on Facebook post calls for the sack of Jose Peseiro.
“If this man remains our coach and Uzoho goal basket our keeper we will not qualify.
Sack him now and for get world cup.
He can’t win match please a chance a coach that doesn’t know how to break into defence,” Godwin said.

On the other hands, top football journalists and presenters across the country are calling for the immediate exclusion of Francis Uzoho from the national team.
Uzoho on Sunday against Zimbabwe conceded a direct free-kick from about thirty yards out; a form which isn’t acceptable to Nigerians.
