Pinnick did not hold back anything, and criticized the players for letting the country down, saying they should shape up or ship out.
“When next you receive an invitation letter to come represent Nigeria, you have a critical decision to make: accept it only if you believe you are in the frame of mind to give your everything or decline if you do not feel that way.
“The camp of the National Team would no longer welcome average players or good players with poor attitude.
“Today, we are supposed to be celebrating with Vincent Enyeama on his 100th cap, but your poor performance has ruined the party and Nigerians are very angry,” said Amaju Pinnick, according to thenff.com.
