Yobo 'gutted' by Iran draw

Tuesday, 17 June 2014




Joseph Yobo has expressed his disappointment at Nigeria's failure to open with a victory against Iran on Monday.

The Super Eagles laboured to a 0-9 draw against the Asians, putting their hopes of advancement in danger, and the Nigeria captain admitted that it was a big disappointment.

"I am gutted," Yobo told KickOffNigeria,com. "This was one of the games we had marked down to win so it's a big disappointment that we did not do it."

However, the Nigeria captain said the team would have to take the positives and use it for the next game. 

"We have to look at the positives. We did not concede a goal, we dominated the game and we got a point.

"Those are the things we should take and improve on for the next game."

The squad flew immediately back to their base in Campinas to begin preparations to meet Bosnia-Herzegovina.
