The head coach of Nigeria’s Super Eagles, Gernot Rohr, has lost his 97-year-old mother, Elizabeth Rohr.
Rohr recently guided the senior national team to a pulsating 2-2 draw against Ukraine in Tuesday’s international friendly game at the Dnipro Arena.
The news was broken Thursday afternoon by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) through its verified twitter handle. The NFF commiserated with the German national over his loss.
