Nigeria Football Federation President, Amaju Pinnick has revealed that some players in the U-23 team are not following the instructions of team's coach Samson Siasia.
The team needs at least a draw against Algeria in today's encounter in a bid to qualify for the semi final of the Africa U-23 Nations Cup in Senegal after winning its first match 3-2 against Mali before been held 2-2 by Egypt in the second match.
Nigeria has failed to keep a clean sheet in this competition despite scoring two to three goals in the first half and only to falter in the second half.
'I observed some things about the team and I spoke with the coaches about it which Monday Odige; one of the assistants, worked on and there were changes.
'If they had listened to the Coach perhaps we wouldn't have conceded those goals, I won't write them off now because they felt bad after the loss, insulted themselves but eventually settled with hugs.
