Nigeria’s poor showing in the CHAN 2024 has left fans very angry, and they want the coach, Eric Chelle, to be fired immediately after the Super Eagles lost 4-0 to Sudan.
This loss showed just how badly Nigeria performed in the tournament, making them the first team to give up five goals without scoring any.
Badly,Fans are shocked, upset, and really angry about this. Social media was full of angry messages calling for Chelle to be removed.
Supporters were very frustrated and spoke strongly about it.
One fan said, “Eric Chelle has finished us.” Another said, “Eric Chelle has burnt Nigeria.” Some fans are pushing for action: “Sack Eric Chelle NOW!
In the first match, he started 6 players from Remo Stars — we lost 1–0. Today, he started 7 Remo Stars players — we were humiliated 4–0 by Sudan. Why? Because his assistant coach is the coach of Remo Stars! If he can’t win these matches, how can he qualify us for the World Cup? The sooner we find a new coach, the better for Nigeria!”
The anger comes from the bad results and the controversial choices of players that Chelle has been making.

Experts and fans have pointed out mistakes in tactics and over-reliance on players from Remo Stars FC, which has made the team not work well together and weak in attack.
Chelle has also been criticized for turning a good team into a group that can’t score or defend.
Chelle himself admitted the match against Sudan was the worst game he’s been in charge of.
”We have lost all ambition. The CHAN is over for us. We have a third match to play for our honour and respect,” he told CAFonline.
Even though he thought the match was important for the players’ careers, he said, “We made a lot of mistakes… 4 mistakes, 4 goals,” and that a lot of thinking is needed.
