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.

“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
