Head coach of the senior national team of Nigeria Jose Peseiro has picked the areas he wants his team to improve on after the 1-2 loss to Algeria yesterday in an international friendly game.
The Portuguese coach watched on as his boys let slip a ninth minute lead to lose the game which was played in front of a capacity crowd in Algeria as part of the ceremony marking the opening of the pitch at Oran.
Asked on the lessons learnt from the two games played in Algeria, the coach whose team also drew 2-2 against the B team of Algeria said he is satisfied with the defence but the team still needs improvement in attack.
“We didn’t do well in attack at times, i think we can do better in that phase. We can improve our game generally. We did well defensively but we can do more offensively. Control the ball more, show more character and fight real hard”,
“We need to improve our organisation, put new dynamics. We need to work more . We have quality players but we need to improve in the area of organization”, he stated.
