“This is it. I can look back on my career with great pride,” he told BBC Sport. I wanted to leave on a high for my country. Defeat by France was not the right way to go but I’m happy with all I’ve done for the national team.

“It’s time to give a chance to other people to come through. Our football has a bright future and I am confident this team can achieve success sooner rather than later Similarly, Stoke City forward, Odemwingie said he is confident that he should go now.“I am happy we played well but lost. I am not too sure now weather to wish we played badly and win or the other way round.“Whatever the case, I am happy I am leaving the team in the hands of capable upcoming juniors.

They should be held together for a long time.Nigeria’s goalkeeper Vincent Enyeama“For me I am not getting younger, I need to get home and evaluate what plans I have for the future”. In response to the fact that he was still young, he said “that is why I was not conclusive. But to tell you, I will like to face club action.

“I still have three years left in my contract. I will like to stick with the club. I am not discussing any moves. I am happy at my club.“For me, I have had a fulfilled time with the national team. I have enjoyed every moment of it. I need to quit now.“The upcoming players in the team are good.

They need all the chance. I just have to go,” he said.Enyeama apologised to Nigerians for the failure of the team to have won.“I want you all to forgive us. You have all done well to support us to this stage.”
