friendly russia goalkeeper admits error for goal against super eagles

Russia goalkeeper, Matvey Safonov is ready to move on from his error in the sides stalemate against the Super Eagles of Nigeria.

The Paris Saint-Germains shot stopper was at fault for the goal conceded by Valery Karpins side in the 1-1 draw with Nigeria at the Luzhniki Stadium, Moscow on Friday night.

Safanov mistakenly passed the ball to substitute Tolu Arokodare, who slotted home for Nigerias equalising goal in the 71st minute.

The 26-year-old accepted responsibility for his teams failure to win the game.

Yes, in principle, everything is clear there. Just a regular pass that probably shouldnt have been done. I think that we shouldn't dwell too much on it or look for an excuse. It was a mistake from me, he told Match TV.
