'If e easy, do am' - Francis Uzoho fires Nigerians

Super Eagles goalkeeper Francis Uzoho has replied to football fans who criticized his performance in the recent friendly against Saudi Arabia and Mozambique.

Nigerians have been critical of Uzoho for another unimpressive performance against Mozambique in their second friendly game of the international break with fans calling for his dismissal from the team.

In a post on his Snapchat, he wrote: "If easy go do am, make oyibo man sign you."

The Super Eagles labored to a hard-fought 3-2 win against Mozambique at the Estadio Municipal De Albufeira Portimao in Portugal to break their 15-game winless jinx in friendly matches.

While fans are yet to get over his comical display against Saudi Arabia, where he turned a harmless free-kick into his own net to hand the Golden Falcons the lead in their friendly game on Friday, Uzoho once again made a mess of another chance handed him by Jose Peseiro, who continues to keep faith in the 24-year-old goalkeeper.

Mozambique had only three shots on target with two of the shots resulting in goals.

But the highlight of the game was the first goal of the game scored by the Mambas as Uzoho wobbled while Geny Catamo coolly slotted in from close range.
