Oliseh Reacts, Talks on Super Eagles Match, Enyeama Saga

By  | 

Following the recent face-off between Vincent Enyeama and coach Sunday Oliseh, Oliseh has finally given accounts of his side of the story.

Oliseh reacts on Vincent Enyeama’s retirement from the national team as he opened up on the crisis rocking the Super Eagles. He was full of prises for John Obi Mikel who carried the team even though they lost.

Enyeama yesterday announced his retirement via Instagram after alleging that his mother was insulted and that he was almost thrown out of the national camp by hotel security in Verviers, Belgium.

Coach Oliseh however says he was surprised by the goalkeeper’s allegations on social media.

In an interview on Brila FM, Oliseh stated that the goalkeeper had insisted on airing his views during dinner after Tuesday’s training, despite the coach’s instruction to stand down and allow his observations be discussed at another time.

The goalkeeper was unhappy with the fact that he was overlooked as captain of the side in favour of Ahmed Musa during a routine meet and greet with the Nigerian ambassador to Belgium after their work out.

The coach said he told Enyeama to either remain quiet or excuse himself from dinner to enable him address the other players. Oliseh stated that a few of the senior players attempted to calm the goalkeeper before leading him away from the room.
