We’re responsible for this shameful outing —Yobo

Joseph Yobo admits that the players must take responsibility for carelessly conceding goals after taking the lead twice against Tunisia.
“It is unacceptable. Even at our clubs we can’t do that,” Yobo said after the game.

“In Nigeria we like to play to the gallery, but we have to be professional.
“The coaches did all they could. As players we had to be professional, but we did not do that and we have to take responsibility.”
