NFF renews Rohr's contract, says Nigeria must win next AFCON

The Nigeria Football Federation President, Amaju Pinnick, has officially confirmed that a new deal has been reached with Gernot Rohr to continue as the Super Eagles coach.

Pinnick wrote: “I’m happy to announce that the NFF and Coach Gernot Rohr have concluded all contractual discussions and he will stay on as Coach of the Super Eagles. “Like the Honourable Minister of Youth and Sports Development has rightly noted; we are uncompromising in these goals.The German tactician qualified Nigeria for the Russia 2018 World Cup but the Super Eagles did not go beyond the first round; a development which was partly blamed on Rohr’s misjudgments in the crucial final group game against Argentina.

The Super Eagles are three-time African champion having won the continental title first on home soil in 1980 and then 24 years later in Tunisia before emerging tops again in South Africa in 2013 under the tutelage of late Stephen Keshi.Rohr has now been handed a new two-and-half-year deal in which his past mistakes can be corrected.

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Yes we can. Only win is enough. Good they stopped setting semifinal target for AFCON. That target should be for the world cup proper

We pray oooo
