Former Super Eagles captain, Sunday Oliseh, is blaming the Elephants of Ivory Coast for their loss to Nigeria in the quarter-final match on Sunday, saying star players Yaya Toure and Didier Drogba were lackadaisical in their approach to the game.
The Ivorians were tournament favourites until they fell 2-1 to the Super Eagles who paraded eight players featuring in the tournament for the first time.
“People were calling them (Ivory Coast) the golden generation but if they had said to themselves that they are not golden until they win something, that could have made a difference,” Oliseh said in a post-match analysis on SuperSport.
