Eguavoen Breaks Silence On Quitting Super Eagles Coaching Job—-Augustine Eguavoen, the interim coach of the Super Eagles, has confirmed that he remains in charge of the Nigerian national team, despite recent confusion about his position.

According to OwnGoalNigeria, Eguavoen’s initial mandate was limited to overseeing the team’s matches against Benin Republic and Rwanda in the ongoing 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.

Eguavoen, who was appointed interim coach after German coach Bruno Labbadia declined the role due to disagreements over tax payments, expressed satisfaction with the team’s performance.

He noted, “I have been given a mandate to handle two games. I am very pleased with the boys and grateful to the NFF leadership and all the players for their discipline and hard work.”

However, he clarified that his current role does not extend beyond these two matches, stating, “It ends today, which is the two games mandate. I can’t discuss the Libya match or future arrangements yet, as I haven’t been informed.”

Upon arriving at Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja, Eguavoen addressed rumors suggesting he had stepped down. He stated, “It’s unfortunate that there are incorrect reports circulating. I will be discussing with the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) leadership about the next steps for the remaining qualifiers.”

Eguavoen emphasized, “What people are reading is not correct. I am still very much in charge as the technical director of the federation and responsible for the Super Eagles at this moment.”

Under Eguavoen’s guidance, the Super Eagles secured a 3-0 victory against the Benin Republic and played to a 0-0 draw with Rwanda in their qualification campaign.

BREAKING: Bruno Fernandes Sent Off As Manchester United Held Porto In a 6-Goal Thriller

BREAKING: Bruno Fernandes Sent Off As Manchester United Held Porto In a 6-Goal Thriller—-Bruno Fernandes the talking point again in the UEFA Europa League as he’s sent off for Manchester United after been previously sent off in the Premier League last weekend against Tottenham where they were thrashed at Old Trafford by the London Club.

Bruno had his red card appealed and is available to feature for Man United next games but again received another red card for a brutal high foot foul against Porto defender as he was booked for second time in the game to get sent off.

Manchester United were 2 goals up early this night through Marcus Rashford 7th minute opener and Ramus Hojlund scores his first goal of the season after returning from injury but Porto fights back to earn a first half draw and goes ahead in the 50th minute through Samu Omorodion.

Harry Maguire rescued a dramatic draw for 10-man Manchester United after they had surrendered a two-goal lead – and had Bruno Fernandes sent off – at Porto in the Europa League.

The injury-time effort could prove priceless for under-pressure manager Erik ten Hag, whose side were moments away from their fourth loss in 10 games to start the season.

Instead, substitute Maguire rose highest to meet Christian Eriksen’s corner and headed superbly into the bottom corner in the first of five added minutes.

It was a thrilling conclusion to a chaotic encounter at Estadio do Dragao.

Porto could have added to their lead with the away side, even down to 10 men, forced to throw players forward, but failed to make them count and were punished by Maguire’s late header.

Despite salvaging something from the game, United have won only three of their first 10 matches of the season and, for the fourth European away game in a row, they failed to win despite having scored three goals.
