Super Eagles players lined-up to heap praises on goalkeeper Vincent Enyeama, after he pulled off two mind-blowing stops in the win over Ethiopia.
Enyeama captained the team on the day, but Joseph Yobo, who came on late in the game showered praise on him.
"He was amazing today, especially with that first save," Yobo said.
"When I saw the header, I just thought it was in, but I don't know how he did it.
"It was a miracle."

Defenders Kenneth Omeruo and Godfrey Oboabona also praised their last line of defence.
"I think that was the best save I have ever seen," Oboabona said. "It came from nowhere."
"He's a great goalkeeper, and he showed it today. I was happy because it helped us keep our clean sheet," Omeruo said.

Sometimes in life you need people who talk like this to give a wake up call and on the other hand naija need to prove him wrong and ultimately reaching set goals,that is why in life there is the Devil giving challenges that remind us that there is the mighty God
ENYEANMA & MOSES
Joint Man Of the Match ....for me.
What peole dont understand is that its not that easy to play against teams like Ethiopia... Mozambiq..!
I was myself realy angry Yesterday but we won at the end. Its wrong to enter a game with the intention to win 4-0!
I was so disappointed of our middlefield! What i missed was a play-death-mentality. Mikel most do more but in my opinion he tried. But I want that he believes in hiself and push harder and harder. Ogude wasnt that bad denfensively but still i want to see more. This guys must understand that 90min is 90min if you get tiered than our bench is waiting. Sunday Mba must also play better.
Our strikers were not able to play inteligent football. What i mean is running without the ball. I only saw inteligent football against Burkina Fasa... Ideye Brown. Ike and Musa and are fantastic players but sometimes you need more than dribble skills. They must must learn to pass the ball Sometimes like Mikel allways and Mikel must also learn to run with ball sometimes. I am really pissed at Musa he stop dribbling. What dont he just flank the ball high to the strikers????? He allways tried to dribble pass the Ethiopians from the right side..... I am not sayin he shouldnt try sometimes..
SIASIA IS STILL THE BEST !!!

ITS WRONG TO ENTER A GAME WITH THE INTENTION TO WIN 4-0 ?????
Tell that to SPAIN, ARGENTINA, BRAZIL or any DECENT TEAM for that matter. Dont be so deluded. Thats Keshi & Amodu mentality!

@Anonymous, Naijabros only gave his opinion which he is entitled to. It may not go down well with you or some others; but, it is an opinion that you ought to respect and tolerate without being ascerbic. That's the meaning of democracy-- to accommodate other viewpoints respectfully even when we disagree.
