“We won all our group matches and all that we were hoping for was to get to the final but it’s disheartening we had to go home early at this stage.
“The fact that one of them [Alex Iwobi] got a red card was a minus to us. We gave them all the full support they needed. Even when the Tunisians scored first, we were still cheering and clapping for them.

“My eyes are still swollen and I have found it difficult to sleep since then.”
