No rift between Ilechukwu, Ogunmodede, says Eguavoen

Remo Stars won the game 2-1, and Ilechukwu voiced his disappointment with Ogunmodede’s behaviour during the match, accusing him of acting overly desperate to secure a win.

Reacting to Ilechukwu’s comment, the Remo Stars’ coach suggested that Ilechukwu’s frustration stemmed from the nature of the defeat.

The exchange got a lot of football enthusiasts worried with both coaches expected to come together for national duties.

Speaking with the Eagles media team on Tuesday, Eguavoen assured that there was no fight between the two coaches followed by a video of the two hugging.

“Ilechukwu came in after Rangers’ games and Ogunmodede came in as well and they hugged each other. There is no fight between them and it is normal for teams to go against each other and tensions rising. Things like that are expected and that is by the way but we are here to do a job for Nigeria.”
