Nigeria totally threw the game away, after a good start with a goal, and having control of the game, an immature reaction in the 33rd minute by Sani Kaitathat led to a red-card, and it changed the complexity of the game.
From then onwards, the Greeks liken to a shark that smells blood in the water, went on an onslaught and proceed wit a flurry of attacks at the 10-men Nigerian.
The African side couldn’t contain the blitz and crumbled, letting in two goals in the process, and I reckon it could have been more if not for the fine goalkeeping efforts of Nigerian Vincent Enyeama.
