Brila FM who broke the news said Eguavoen has sent an official resignation letter to the NFF.

The Sports radio said Eguavoen will now return to his role as Technical Director of all national teams.

However, the Nigerian Football Federation, NFF, is yet to release an official statement.

Nigeria played 1-1 draw with Ghana inside Moshood Abiola National stadium Abuja, but could not go through due to away goal deficit.

The NFF had handed a two-year contract to Eguavoen two days before the first leg of the World Cup play-off against Ghana.
