The Super Eagles coach conceded victory to a better team after his side lost 3-0 to Spain on Sunday night in Fortaleza

What he's learned from Spain and the
Confederations Cup

We lost the match
because we played against a better side, a
team that has been good for a
very long time. It's a learning
process for us, we just have to
continue what we started tonight
and build. The teams and the coaches that I spoke with, have been very
educative for us. We're going back
with some sort of education from
this tournament.

On the nature of his
strikers missing up front
I think there was so much anxiety
in front of the goal line, the good
thing is that we created chances
but we didn't finish them. Hopefully it's going to come
quickly.

On fair nature of the result

Yeah, if you look at the game -
three goals was not fair. But, this
is football and it happens.

Is Brazil or Spain the favourite?
Well, I don't know all of world football. I'm learning. I can't say if Spain is better than Brazil. In this
tournament, the best team doesn't always win. I can't put
money on anyone.

On absence of key players for Nigeria at the tournament
I think so, because when you look
at the other teams, they have
their complete team, their first-
team. In the last matches we lost
four or five key players and
today we lost another key player in the centre half, it was damaging. It's football, we have to
live with it.
What will Nigeria do if they
make the WC?
If we qualify, we have questions.
We're still in the process of
qualifying, so I can't tell you what
we're going to do yet.
On why the team lost so much composure in the second half
It's a learning process for us. This
is a team that hardly goes down
2-0 and when put in that
position, they lost the
composition, the shape of the
team. It was a major problem. In the first half we were very
composed, but when we conceded
the second goal in the second
half, we became unprofessional.
We need more experience.
On his reaction to Alba scoring two goals
"It's the game. When I was playing
I scored 10, 11 goals a season.
Just because you're a defender
doesn't mean you can't help your
team make a difference up front.
I've seen a lot of good defenders scoring goals. Goals win games, and it doesn't matter (who scores).

Stephen Keshi said the right things, even before the tournament if you look at the team and Nigeria front you can see that a lot good players are missing there.

Let Nigeria team just learn and move forward, Nigeria team just went there with faith, not with great football team.
