Ghanaian journalists and football fans are exacting revenge on Nigeria following their ‘shock' exit from the ongoing African Cup of Nations, AFCON, in Cameroon.
On Tuesday, January 18, 2022, the Black Stars of Ghana lost their last Group C game to Comoros to end their AFCON campaign with a draw two losses and a point.
Nigerians had a field day mocking the team and fans at a time they had won their first two games, they subsequently beat Equatorial Guinea to finish top of their group three wins out of three games.
In a battle of Eagles – Carthage vs. Super in the round of 16 clashes in Garoua, the Tunisians prevailed thanks to a lone goal by Youssef Msakni who beat Nigeria goalkeeper Maduka Okoye with a long-range effort two minutes into the second half. Tunisians held on to knock Nigeria out.
On Twitter, Ghanaian journalists have not spared their Nigerian counterparts the pain of seeing their 100% win at the group stage blown apart by the North Africans
Ghanaians can laugh at you ooooo eiiiii
Heartless people
