Gernt Rohr Reveals Where He Will Keep His Bronze Medal From AFCON 2019
Head coach of the Super Eagles, Gernot Rohr, has disclosed he will keep his bronze medal from the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations, in his home in France.
Nigeria finished third after beating Tunisia 1-0 on Wednesday at the Al Salam Stadium in Cairo, Egypt.
It is the first-ever medal for Rohr, since he started managing African national teams.
The German coach had managed Gabon, Niger Republic and Burkina Faso in the past.
“Winning the AFCON bronze medal from competition from 24 teams is not easy.
“We had to win five games, that’s what we did.
“But unfortunately, it was not the final but it is better to lose little final than to lose a big final. It is very important to win it. I will hang it at home in my house in France,” Rohr told SportingLife.
