‘It will never come home’ - England’s World Cup exit sparks mixed reactions from some Nigerian fans

England has performed outstandingly throughout the World Cup but they were unable to get beyond the French team.

Nigerian fans have rushed to their social media platforms to express their emotions on the match result between England and France.

It should be recalled that the Three Lions were shown the exit door by Didier Deschamps’ men in the Quarter-final tie at Al Bayt Stadium on Saturday.

A long-range strike from outside the box by Aurelien Tchouameni and Olivier Giroud’s header ended England’s 2022 World Cup campaign.

However, after the 17th-minute lead, Harry Kane pulled one back from the spots before the former Arsenal forward pounced on Antoine Griezman’s cross to score advantage to make it 2-1.

Harry Kane had a clear opportunity to level the goal on the scoresheet, but his kick from the penalty spot went wide.
