José Peseiro

Jose Peseiro has praised the Super Eagles players for showing character despite losing Mexico in an international friendly game in Dallas, USA.

Peseiro took charge of his first game as Eagles coach but could not prevent his side from losing 2-1.

Europa Conference League top scorer Cyriel Dessers opened his goal account, as he equalized for the Eagles after Santiago Gimenez had given Mexico the first-half lead. لعبة قمار

But an own goal by William Troost-Ekong saw Mexico retake the lead.

“In the first half Mexico was much better than us but in the second half, I think we had more balance. العب واربح المال الحقيقي  

“I am not happy that we lost but I’m happy with the performance of my players because they showed character, especially after what Mexico did in the first half. I think in the second half there was an improvement. الكزينو

The Eagles will be in action in another friendly on June 2nd when they will face Ecuador in New Jersey.
