Flying Eagles captain, Daniel Bameyi, claimed the team fought hard for the draw against Morocco, DAILY POST reports.
Aliyu Zubairu’s side were made to work hard for the point by the Moroccans.
While the Flying Eagles dominated the first half, Morocco took control of the game after the break.
Bameyi believed the result was a true reflection of the game.
“It was a good one. Respect to the opponent and my teammates. It was an intense game because we both knew what was at stake,” the Bayelsa United defender said after the game.
“We give God the glory for the outcome of the match.”
The Flying Eagles will be up against Kenya in their final group game on Wednesday.
