Yahaya Lawali, a Golden Eaglets defender, was unhappy after his team was defeated 1-0 by Morocco on Wednesday.

Despite the defeat, the right-back was chosen Man of the Match for the second time in a row.

Nduka Ugbade's team dominated the game but failed to convert multiple chances.

Only four of the two-time champions' 27 shots were on target. "We are heartbroken that we were unable to capitalize on our opportunities, but we are confident that we will perform better in our next match.

"We will work to ensure we are better and more efficient with scoring," Lawali was quoted by CAFonline.

On Saturday, the Golden Eaglets will play South Africa in their final group game.
