Just In: NFF sack Gernot Rohr after five years

The Nigerian Football Federation, NFF, has sacked Gernot Rohr as the head coach of the Nigerian national football team, Omasports reports.

The German was sacked despite his team progressing to Africa’s 2022 World Cup play-offs.

The Super Eagles, three-time African champions, finished top of Group C despite being held 1-1 by Cape Verde in Lagos on Tuesday.

Rohr was appointed head coach of the Super Eagles in August 2016.
