Super Eagles coach Eric Chelle has talked about why he decided to bring on Samuel Chukwueze and Moses Simon during Nigerias tough penalty shootout loss to Morocco in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations semifinals.
There was no go in the regulation time, leading the game to extra-time and penalty shootout where Morocco beat Nigeria 4-0.
With seven minutes left in the game, Paris FCs key player Simon came on as a substitute to replace Raphael Onyedika, who had started despite not performing well.
