Beach Soccer World Cup: Nigeria hit all-time low in dreadful Brazil performance

Nigeria hit an all-time low in Tuesday’s 12-2 loss to Brazil at the ongoing 2019 Fifa Beach Soccer World Cup in Paraguay.

Rodrigo got a hat-trick, while Bokinha and Rafinha scored a brace, with Bruno Xavier, Catarino and Filipe all on the scoresheet.

Egan-Osi Ekujumi and Abu Azeez found the net but that stood as mere consolation as the two-time African champions return home with heads bowed low.

Having lost to Portugal and Oman, coach Audu Adamu’s men were hoping to restore some pride by causing an upset against the South Americans, however, they were at the receiving end.
