West Ham United
forward Victor Moses has lamented it was a shame that Nigeria could not beat
Egypt in an all-important AFCON 2017 qualifier in Kaduna on Friday.
Nigeria drew 1-1 with Egypt and now walk a tighter
rope in the race to pick an automatic qualification ticket to AFCON 2017 in
Gabon.
“Shame we couldn’t get the win today (Friday) but
the boys battled hard and we move on to Tuesday now,” a disappointed Moses
tweeted.
Victor Moses was a
second-half substitute on Friday, playing his first match for Nigeria since the
2014 World Cup in Brazil.
Nigeria on five points stay two points behind
group leaders Egypt, who host Nigeria in a return leg in Alexandria on Tuesday.
Tanzania are third with four points, while Chad
are rooted to the bottom having recorded no points after three rounds of
matches.
