The Eagles slumped 2-0 to DR Congo in a friendly, Thursday night.

Nigeria’s defeat comes the same day former Eagles skipper Vincent Enyeama quit the team after a row over who captains the side.

New Eagles captain Ahmed Musa was handicapped throughout the game in which Chelsea “squad player” Mikel Obi was the only one who produced a few sparks.

Captain Musa did not come to the party, and had to make way for Arsenal youngster Alex Nwobi in the second half.

Nigeria plays Cameroon next, on Sunday.

Both friendlies were fixed to help the Eagles prepare for their next round of African Nations Cup qualifiers.
