The first choice goalkeeper of the senior national team of Nigeria Francis Uzoho has hit back at a bike and insulting comment made to him by a fan of the senior national team of Nigeria in the aftermath of his praises for the goalkeeper of the women’s team of Nigeria, OwnGoalNigeria.comreports.
Chiamaka Nnadozie covered herself in glory at the women’s world cup with top notch performance for the Super Falcons, who were knocked out in the round of 16 via penalties by the champions of Europe England.
Her performances earned her praises with Uzoho joining in consoling her after her post lamenting the exit of the team at the round of 16. She was particularly pained over the manner which they lost and rightly so judging by the fact that they played with one extra player after the red card to Lauren James of England.
” Impressive tournament number one”, Uzoho posted. It drew reactions from lot of people but one went to the extreme by calling the Omonia Nicosia goalkeeper a pig. ” Mumu better learn to keep from her. No be to dey do like pig for post”, he posted in pidgin English and it means ” fool learn how to be a goalkeeper from her and not like a pig in goal”.
Uzoho reacted by saying ” You see wetin this pig don achieve? Up to your 5th generation no go fit achieve am. Just dey play”, he said in pidgin which means ” What he has achieved as a pig in goal can’t be matched by the 5th generation of the individual who called him a pig”.
