Renowned musician Charles Oputa, commonly known as Charly Boy, has responded to the Super Eagles’ 2-1 loss to Ivory Coast in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations on Sunday.
In his commentary, Charly Boy acknowledged the efforts of Jose Peseiro’s squad against Ivory Coast but conceded that the better team emerged victorious.
“The Super Eagles really tried but the best team won. Oya, make we face the demons facing us.” Charly Boy expressed on X.
It’s worth noting that Nigeria initially took the lead in the first half courtesy of William Troost-Ekong’s header.
However, Ivory Coast managed to equalize in the second half with Franck Kessie’s header. In the dying moments of the game, Sebastien Haller’s flick past goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali secured the host nation’s victory.
