The poor performance of Yira Sor in his debut game for the senior national team of Nigeria has been pegged to a lack of understanding of the manager’s tactics, OwnGoalNigeria.com reports.
Sor had a debut to forget in the colours of the Super Eagles, playing from the start in their second game against Jordan at the recently concluded four team invitational tournament in Turkey.
He was subbed off in the second half without doing anything notably for the period that he was on. However the Genk winger has received backing from his teammate.
” He didn’t understand what the coach wanted from him and it’s understandable because he is in the team for the first time. Maybe playing on the right didn’t help him as well because he is an explosive winger and not a dribbler”, he said.
” I can tell you that he is a very good player and if given another chance, I strongly believe that he will take it and do much better than the game against Jordan”, he concluded.
