Nigerians have berated the performance of the Super Eagles after they lost 1-0 to the Indomitable Lions of Cameroon, in Friday’s international friendly in Austria.

It would be recalled that, it was the first time the Cameroonians will defeat the Eagles since the final of the AFCON in 2000.

However, social media have been agog most especially Twitter following the outcome of the match as Nigerians created an hashtag #Iwobi, on the microblogging platform, and they trolled the player for the defeat suffered.

The Idomitable Lions and the Super Eagles are said to meet again on Tuesday for the second leg of the international at the same venue.
