Former President of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), Amaju Pinnick, has revealed that the failure of the Super Eagles to qualify for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar is the lowest moment of his life.
Black Stars of Ghana dented Super Eagles’ hopes of qualifying when they played 1-1 in Abuja after a goalless draw in Kumasi to secure a place in Qatar.
Pinnick was still in charge of the NFF when Ghana qualified for the World Cup. He said he regrets how things turned out.
While talking to Channels Television in Qatar, he said: “Quite at the beginning I felt very humbled, I felt very bad because it’s not just about me or the country, a lot of people were concerned that Nigeria was not there. From the FIFA president to the CAF president, most of my colleagues in the council were asking where are the Super Eagles.
“But of course, you also understand that it is football. It can tilt towards any direction, but trust me that moment in March was my lowest moment since I was born.”
