Former Nigeria playmaker, Austin ‘Jay Jay’ Okocha, has claimed Taiwo Awoniyi will look back at the 3-1 win over Sudan and have regrets.
Okocha stated this after Awoniyi scored once in the second Group D fixture at the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations.
The Union Berlin striker made it 2-0 after Samuel Chukwueze opened the scoring in the third minute.
It was Awoniyi’s first goal for the Super Eagles, but Okocha feels that he should have grabbed a few more.
“Awoniyi would have done better. He would have scored more goals after that lucky goal but he was in too much of a haste.
“When he looks back at the match he would regret it.
“At least after scoring the goal, he would have gained more confidence,” Okocha said on Supersport.
