“We hear a lot of negative things about Nigerians, but today we see something different,” he remarked. For a neutral game, the spectator attendance, hospitality, and orderliness are exceptional. “I would like to return for another final,” Jawab Akbi said.
Several Nigerian supporters mirrored the opinions expressed by the well-traveled CAF/FIFA Accredited Journalist.
