Ademola Lookman has revealed that it has been an amazing experience to play for interim Super Eagles coach Augustine Eguavoen.
Eguavoen served as the Super Eagles' manager from 2005–2007, 2010 and 2022 before returning for a fourth stint as a caretaker.
He took over as manager after Bruno Labbadia withdrew from contract negotiations with the Nigeria Football Federation, and since then, the team's performance has improved.
The Super Eagles team have gone on to win three games and draw one since he was named the head coach.
