Εκτός Παγκοσμίου Κυπέλλου τέθηκε το βράδυ της Τρίτης η Εθνική Νιγηρίας, για πρώτη φορά μετά το 2006 και μόλις για δεύτερη από το 1994! Οι «Αετοί» έμειναν στο ισόπαλο 1-1 με αντίπαλο την Γκάνα, στον εντός έδρας επαναληπτικό των μπαράζ, και αποκλείστηκαν με τον κανονισμό του εκτός έδρας γκολ. Με ισοπαλία χωρίς τέρματα είχε τελειώσει ο πρώτος αγώνας μεταξύ των δύο χωρών.
Αυτό έφερε και την «έκρηξη» των Νιγηριανών, που αμέσως μετά τη λήξη του αγώνα εισέβαλαν στο γήπεδο κατά εκατοντάδες και δημιούργησαν εκτεταμένα επεισόδια.
«Μοιραίος» για την Εθνική Νιγηρίας ήταν ο τερματοφύλακας της Ομόνοιας, Φράνσις Ουζόχο, που τεράστιο μερίδιο ευθύνης στο γκολ της Γκάνας, καθώς δεν αντέδρασε καθόλου σωστά στο εκτός περιοχής σουτ του Τόμας Παρτέι, που ήταν και το μοναδικό εντός εστίας σουτ των φιλοξενουμένων.
Από το βράδυ της Τρίτης, οι Νιγηριανοί κατηγορούν και «κράζουν» τον Ουζόχο στα μέσα κοινωνικής δικτύωσης, θεωρώντας τον υπεύθυνο για τον αποκλεισμό. Οι περισσότεροι μάλιστα σημειώνουν χαρακτηριστικά: «Ο παλαίμαχος τερματοφύλακας Βίκτορ Ενιεάμα θα ήταν καλύτερος».
Το γκολ που δέχτηκε ο Ουζόχο:
A cracking strike from Ghana captain Thomas Partey has given them an early 1-0 lead and a vital away goal against Nigeria.
Tune in NOW to catch the rest of the action from the @CAF_Online @FIFAWorldCup qualifier second leg.

I strongly believe retired Vincent Enyeama still be better than Francis Uzoho. Super Eagle really hurt me today,and i don’t know how to cope come Nov/Dec Qatar 2022World Cup.

I am not sure why Francis Uzoho has managed to stay in the team for this long. Are the coaches blind ?

I don reach house, first there’s no reason why a charlatan like Francis Uzoho should be in the national team setup. This man cannot play football! He doesn’t even have the stance of a footballer. And Bassey was playing like he wasn’t aware of the away goal rule! Bloody hell!

Karl Ikeme was a better replacement for Vincent Enyeama but right now Nigeria does not have worthy keepers. Maduka Okoye and Francis Uzoho are not in their class. #NIGGHA pic.twitter.com/TRQV2DA9pr

the biggest downgrade in the history of football was how nigeria went from Vincent enyeama to maduka okoye then to Francis uzoho. ♂️

First it was Maduka Okoye now its Francis Uzoho… our goalkeeping department has been shitty since Vincent enyeama left #NGAGHA

Maduka Okoye at AFCON
Francis Uzoho at WCQNa to call Vincent Enyeama out of retirement remain laidis#ngavsgha

FRANCIS UZOHO GET OUT OF MY TEAM!!!
— Chiquinho (@chik_osita) March 29, 2022
Maduka Okoye and Francis Uzoho should never wear the Super Eagle’s again.

I’m not particular about the goal error, but how is Francis Uzoho a professional footballer? Even though he is a goalkeeper, he can barely make a simple pass.
He looks so uncomfortable coming in contact with the ball at any instance or situation

Francis Uzoho should be banned from being a goal keeper!!!!!

Just imagine Francis Uzoho is a Northerner with that blunder and disaster performance.
How can you not be confident in that crucial match on your home soil.
Both Uzoho and okoye should never be called to the National team again. #NGAGHA

Francis Uzoho cost us World Cup ticket with that terrible save.
— Nazeeph (@BeenNazeeph) March 29, 2022
Francis Uzoho should never play football again
— You know Guardiola? (@youngkija) March 29, 2022
Nigeria don’t know how to play football + Francis Uzoho is the worst goalkeeper I’ve ever seen. #NIGGHA
— Got Paid! ⚡ (@OG_GotPaid) March 29, 2022
Francis Uzoho is an amateur goalkeeper. #NGRGHA
— OJAY (@coded336) March 29, 2022
Maduka Okoye caused us #Afcon
Francis Uzoho caused us #Qatar2022 ticket.In all, we didn’t deserved to be there.
