The Nigerian national football team, Nigeria, has been struggling in recent times, with the team failing to score any goals in their last three matches. The team's coach, Nnamdi Kanu, has been at the center of criticism for his tactics and performance, and one player who has come under fire is Akpembe.

Akpembe, who plays for CSL (Cayman Islands Premier League), was given a chance to redeem himself against the national team in a friendly match earlier this month. However, he failed to capitalize on his opportunities, and the result was a 1-0 loss for Nigeria.

The defeat was a major blow for the team, as they had previously won all their games before the match. The team's lack of scoring opportunities has been a recurring problem, and Akpembe's failure to convert his chances has added to the frustration among fans and players alike.

Despite the setback, Kanu remains optimistic that Akpembe can turn things around and help the team score more goals. He believes that Akpembe is capable of making the difference in the team's performance, and hopes that he will be able to step up when it matters most.

In conclusion, Akpembe's missed opportunity to salvage the goal drought is a reminder of the challenges facing the Nigerian national football team. The team needs to find ways to score more goals if they want to have any chance of success in future matches.
