Yakubu Ayegbeni says Nigerians are yet to forgive him for his miss against South Korea at the 2010 Fifa World Cup in South Africa.
After defeats to Argentina and Greece, Lars Lagerback’s men needed a win to qualify for the Round of 16, however, they could only secure a 2-2 at Durban’s Moses Mabhida Stadium.
The major talking point of the game was Ayegbeni’s unbelievable miss from three yards into an open goal, after rolling the effort wide with goalkeeper Jung Sung-ryong completely beaten.
However, he redeemed himself after slotting in the Super Eagles’ leveller from the penalty spot after Kim Nam-Il’s clumsy tackle on Chinedu Obasi.
