Keshi's tweet confirming he's bowing out, Yobo announces retirement

For those who had any doubts, Stephen Keshi, took to his twitter account to confirm he's quitting the Super Eagles. See Yobo's announcement confirming his resignation as a player for the Super Eagles after the cut...



Joseph Yobo yesterday evening announced his resignation as a player for the super eagles. Yobo after the 2-0 lost match to France, told reporters that it was time for him to go face his family.
"It was a bitter-sweet moment for me but I think it is time to focus on my family. It has been a long road. I never thought that I’d be here because I missed the last six games of the season through injury. They gave me an opportunity but it is unfortunate what happened. I gave my all,” he said.
Yobo follows in the step of Kanu Nwankwo who announced his retirement after the World cup in 2010. The 33 year old defender said he would like to concentrate on club football now.

Why can't GEJ resign for humanity sake. This man is not a failure compare to Jonathan. He has broken some records. Good luck to him.

Thanks, Big Boss. With all the scandals coming out of other African countries, he kept a modicum of sanity in the Super Eagles camp.

Well done to Yobo. 101 caps isn't "beans" as they say.

The boys had an impressive outing! Keshi is a great coach. They didt make it to the top but they did good. God bless them. What we need now is to train really young players to play for the love of the game and let the money come. This team really tried their best ,they proved that Nigerians have got game on them,we just need more quality striking and goal scoring and a special one like KANU,yekini etc who can make d difference ,the way messi does for Argentina or neymar for Brazil.nfa needs to go to secondary schools nd start recruiting future players. We need a plan, to beat top teams,we need to polish our raw talents from young.

Linda the score line is; 2-0 and not 2-1, pls always check b4 publishing. However Yobo had 101 caps for Nigeria, the highest so far but is saying Good bye with an own goal, well fare well to him as he has paid his dues. For me it would have been better for Mikel to get injured than Onazi who was so wonderful, his exit was the root cause of our defeat as Mikel was just running around d field without bearing
