Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi has commented on the Super Eagles 2-1 win over Ivory Coast. The ex New Nigeria Bank libero has praised the fighting spirit of his charges against the bookies favorites.<br /><br />''I know the mentality of my players, their level of concentration, and I knew they could do it. My players were disciplined. Nobody gave us a chance, but we showed character.<br />&nbsp;<br />''When I made the team, I knew we would have to fight. We started the game well and were tactically disciplined. It came with determination and mental toughness. I have a lot of respect for the Ivorian team, but we fought hard,'' Keshi was quoted as saying by afcon2013online.com.<br /><br />Meanwhile, coach of the Elephants Sabri Lamouchi is disappointed with the result which knocked the team out of the African Nations Cup.<br /><br />He said in his post match comments: ''We had only one goal and that was to win the Africa Cup of Nations. For some of us, it might be a last chance. For me, it is my first Africa Cup of Nations and I had the same objective.<br />&nbsp;<br />''We did our best but could not succeed. It&rsquo;s an obvious disappointment and you can imagine the state of the players.<br />&nbsp;<br />''For me, it is a huge sadness. I have seen players work for a month, make efforts and I thought we were on the right path, doing good work, but it was not enough. On resignation, I do not even think about resigning after six months knowing the job done. It certainly was not enough to win the tournament.''<br />
